Nope. I've seen the bimbos some of the business owners are married to. And I've seen their children too. Golden rule, he who makes (or has to send in the gold), makes the rules.

OK, thinking about that, I would be OK with making voting based on sending in a "positive" tax return. This means that you actually sent money towards the Government. If you didn't make enough money to send some in, you don't get to vote. And I would eliminate the voting age. If you send money into the IRS, then you are old enough to vote.

Bimbos married to the rich do not get to slide in.
