re: Why should everyone be allowed to vote?

Here's how I would install voting if I was king:

Wait, if I was king, frick yo votes. If I was in charge of the voting, though:

(All votes are counted per election)

1) If you paid net taxes in the last year, you get 1 vote this year.
2a) If you served in the military last year, you get 1 vote this year or
2b) If you were discharged from the military honorably, you get one vote per year for the rest of your life, except in
3) If your arse is currently under imprisonment, you lose one vote in the current year.

If you fulfill 1 and 2, that's two votes for you, and if you fall under 3 but also fulfilled 1 and 2 for the previous year, you net 1 vote.

Benefits: eliminates representation without taxation, assessed year to year so people can work to change their situation if they really want to vote, gives more voting power to people who truly want to serve their country the most (pay taxes and serve in the military).
