Not a bad idea. Breaks the electoral college into districts instead of states, am I reading that correctly?

Yep

One District gets one Vote

It would increase representation which is good.

While only net taxpayers should have a say in elected officials, it breaks the idea of every US citizen having a constitutional right to vote for an elected official.

It's how the UK, Canada, Australia, India, NZ, and Japan do things

I don't really care about what is or is not currently law, just what works.

hmmm

And I'm against any proposal that represses representation. DC is a great example of taxation with representation.

If you're not paying taxes, you're not being taxed without representation.

It eliminates votes that press for more entitlement spending.

True. But people need to climb the social-economic ladder to attain the position of net taxpayer.

AKA those with skin in the game get to vote.

Yes, work and don't take welfare.

Impressive, truly.

I'm come to the bitter realization that there will always be those who cannot contribute in any meaningful capacity to society

Another thing that would be good is "Ranked Choice Voting"

You need social programs to stave off the 10-15%

This would kill Vote Splitting

Otherwise you end up with widespread crime

Getting rid of Spoilers n shit

The theory that you should have a welfare state to appease the lower 30 percent will work until it doesn't.

Have you looked at the US debt and deficit lately?

The US is already a Welfare State

That's why I'm a huge fan of reforms like the latest to the SNAP provision

Every Developed Nation is

It's great if you can make such a system work, but it will collapse if not reined in.

Since it has a Police Force, Military, and a Government which provides services

In one way or another.

Exactly. Why is why limitations need to be enforced.

That's also why I can't contend with any Democrat espousing nationalizing programs.

But the voters will not allow the gibs trough to be stopped until the system breaks.

This is the problem.

Example - extending healthcare to non-taxpaying members of this country would drastically destabilize the system.

@J.R. BOB DOBBS Welfare just means Gov't Spending. So a Welfare State is just a State where the Gov't Spends Money on things like the Police/Fire/Rescue, DMV, Military, Gov't Institutions, Health Care, Education, etc etc

True, but we'll have 4 more years of Trump.

Trump is a stop gap for now

In that respect, even China is a Welfare State

No. Welfare does not just mean govt spending.

And that's a radically disproportionate comparison.

@The Supreme Xtream Welfare is medicaid, medicare, social security, etc
