Here me out, the major toxic voting incentives can be fixed very easily:

If you receive a subsidy, welfare, handout from the govt of any kind, you automatically lose the right to vote. In no world does it make sense for people who receive benefit to get to vote for those who pay for it to have a greater, coerced obligation to them.

I love the Idea. But isn't almost everybody recieving some sort of handout by now? Especially if you count people who work for companies that get government contracts, handouts or favorable uncompetitive regulation. At least in socialist countries like germany.

Then they give it up to be able to vote. Simple.

What about their family? They also shouldn't be able to vote, because of incentives. Including anyone who's parents have or will have government funded retirement.

Also what if the government builds a road next to your house?

I actually think nobody should be able to vote, but thats not a popular opinion.
