After further consideration, “government aid” needs more explanation. Does that mean that a disabled person getting aid could not vote? Doesn’t seem fair.

Doesn't seem unfair to me. If you're on the dole, you don't get to vote. I'd also strip the vote from anyone on the gov't payroll or pension.

I agree with you that corporate money needs to be taken out of politics for there to be any hope of salvaging the country. I like your idea of anyone not eligible to vote in any particular election being barred from making contributions. That would keep overseas money out of our domestic politics.
