Here's a ratio which is guaranteed to throw the DUmmies into fits:Tie voting to taxation.
A person gets one vote for each $1,000 of income or capital gains tax paid in the previous tax year. It creates a course correction for candidates who would otherwise promise to raise taxes on 'them' to reward favored constituancies.
We can call it 'Investment in America'. I suspect Robert A Heinlein would approve.
Agreed, although with a twist.
Bring in your income tax payment receipt when voting.
Every dollar in income(and/or capital gains) would be worth 1 vote.
That would also be an incentive for those high earners who legally or illegally shirk taxes to pay them.
