There should be a test and tax obligations should be current.

How about this test, If you don't pay any Federal Income taxes, you
should have any input as to how it is spent,
ie: you don't get to vote.

PS, I'll let others develop exemptions from the rule.

FICA payments are for a disability and retirement program and not
considered a tax for my test.


I suggest you read the 24th Amendment.

The Twenty-fourth Amendment prohibits Congress and the states from
conditioning the right to vote in federal elections on payment of a poll
tax or other types of tax.

You right-wing white boys just love to disenfranchise people. Too bad
you didn’t pay attention in civics classes, eh?

It is not any sillier than those Hillary supporters who want to repeal
the Bill of Rights.

So it will take a felony tax evasion charge to keep you from voting?

I know that, I just don't like people having a say how the pie is
divided if they don't have anything in the pie.
We are moving toward the tipping point, shown by the popularity of
Bernie Sanders and a 90% tax rate, which he has softened on.

A few predictions of what we have.


Alexander Hamilton famously said, "When the people find that they
can vote themselves money, that will herald the end ."


"[Democracy] can only exist until a majority of voters discover
that they can vote themselves largess out of the public treasury." -A. Tyler


"When the public discovers they can vote themselves money from the
public treasury, the [American] experiment will be over"-Tocqueville 1838


"Democracy will cease to exist when people realize they can vote
themselves more money"- Thomas Jefferson


"When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will
herald the end of the republic." Benjamin Franklin


When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will
herald the end of the republic. -Alexander Tytler (paraphrase)
