Back in the 1960s, oil tycoon H.L. Hunt published a plan to change the voting laws. It would have required a constitutional amendment.
I thought it was a good idea. I still do.
Everyone 18 and above gets at least one vote.
Over 21 gets an additional vote.
The upper 25% individual income tax payers get an additional vote.
If you are a person paying the bills, then should you get votes equal to the bill you pay?
A person that pays $10,000 in income tax should get 10,000 votes.
A person that pays $20,000 in income tax should get 20,000 votes.
A person that pays $100,000 in income tax should get 100,000 votes.
A married couple filing jointly paying $100,000 in income tax would each get 50,000 votes. IF they file seperatly and the husband pays $70,000 and she pays $30,000 then they get 70,000 and 30,000 votes respectively.
When any of the above vote they can allocate votes based on any split they wish not all votes have to go to the same candidate right?
That’s simply not true.
75% of federal expenditures go to Defense and entitlements.
We all benefit equally from national defense.
Entitlements do not help the multi millionaire a bit. How does Bill Gates benefit from Social Security and Medicare?
Your argument isn’t making any sense. I said they pay most of the bills and you countered that they benefited the most from the system.
That would mean you think they benefited the most from the government. They don’t.
