My view: Anyone who has not filed an IRS 1040 showing earned income for at least one year (preferably past 3 years) previous to a federal election should not be allowed to vote - period. If you don’t earn money legally, you should not have a say in how anyone elses’s money shall be redistributed, nor in how this country is run. If you don’t have sufficient gumption to get out and work - at any job - you have no business voting.

You are ridiculous.

So you would exclude from voting anyone out of the workforce.

Earned income does not include capital gains, dividends, pensions, social securtity, pensions and all other non-employment income.

See http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=176508,00.html for a definition of earned income.
