if you say no taxes, no votes, then a shitload of college students would be w/o votes.
it's called ability-to-pay taxes, as you have more money, you are able to pay more
as in a gas station, it's based upon use. a person using more gas is likely to travel a lot more, putting wear and tear on roads (assume everyone gets same mileage). this example is irrelevant, but i just wanted to put it in.
back to the earlier point.
so, if voting is according to taxes you pay, rich would control the country.
voting should not be based on wealth at all. remember back in the day when you had to own property to vote? this is just like that.
