I have often thought it a good idea to only allow persons who pay income tax eligible to vote. EBT recipients don’t vote.

OK, real property and/or income tax of let’s say $2,000 or more. But in any case raise the voting age to 25, which is the new 18.

I've been thinking one vote per dollar tax paid. And you pay your tax as you vote. Representation per skin-in-the-game.

Yes, my few thousand votes would be washed out by the millionaires. But they are paying way more in taxes than I am.
