Just as taxation without representation was a bad idea, I believe representation without taxation (not having any skin in the game) is equally bad. I say if you don’t pay taxes, you don’t vote.

Which taxes? Feral, State, Local, School?

I won't pay any Feral taxes for 2009, because I didn't gross enough. Does that mean I shouldn't get to vote? In local elections? Or just Feral elections?

I've got skin in the game, by being subject to the powers of the various gooberments.
