That kind of voting at the polls will surely bankrupt the nation.
So why don't you say what you mean....stop using code words. You want to keep the "welfare people" from voting because they don't "pay taxes". So would it follow that those people who do pay taxes should get more of a vote depending on how much of a tax bill they paid. So for example if you pay $10,000 you get one vote. But $20,000 1.1 votes.... The more you pay the bigger the vote.

Sounds really democratic to me.
