[Libertarianize the GOP]

If a person does not pay federal taxes, then they should not be allowed to participate in federal elections. Same for all levels, state, local, etc. I would venture a guess that the budgets would be whipped into shape in no time if the moochers couldn't vote themselves pay raises!

I would go one farther. Any place that you own property or a business and so pay local taxes you should be allowed to vote in the local election. You shouldn't get more than one vote for President but you should be able to vote for Mayor and City Council if you are paying city taxes.

That is what I meant when I carried it forward "to all levels". We're on the same page....
