Completion of your taxes grants you a certificate you can use along with valid ID and proof of residency - Problem solved (mostly).
NO REPRESENTATION WITHOUT TAXATION
I couldn’t agree more. One has to have skin in the game in order to vote. I’ve thought about this for at least four decades. Unfortunately, those who have the power to make such a change will never do so.
As an example:
Congressman Philip Crane (R-IL) appeared on a daytime television talk show in 1980 to promote his flat tax proposal. It made sense to me and I have been advocating for that (even would settle for a consumption tax) ever since. Has our tax system been simplified so we can file our taxes on a piece of paper the size of a postcard? Nope! The people on Capitol Hill will never make this change and give up their social engineering power.
