I'm not a fan of that idea because we would have even more of the population having ZERO tax liability. I think we need an across the board tax percentage that every income earner pays regardless of income. When you have only one segment paying taxes it turns into a " the haves vs the have nots" thing. With everyone paying into the system more people will be mindful of Federal and local spending and where their money is going. I like the original American way of only land owners ( tax payers) being able to vote. I admit it's an extreme way of thinking, but since tax payers are the ones providing the funding, we should have a more weighted voice.
