No one should be allowed to vote who does not have some “skin” in the game. If paying income tax were a requirement, we would eliminate a lot of the uninformed, ignorant voters who just vote in whomever they think will give them the most from the government till, or who is the coolest rock star type, etc. You get the picture. Suggestion…when you file your income tax return, the IRS will send you an admnission card to the polling place. That card, together with your picture id, gets you in the door. Something else I would like to see is a simple government literacy test. Who is the VP? Who is the speaker of the house? What rights does the Constitution guarantee to the people? I can hear the left yellings “racist” already.
