This is why I agree with most libertarian philosophies. Smaller federal government, more Local government. At a certain level the size of the populace and the size of the government becomes too great. There are issues even with the "Only Land owners and tax payers vote" or "Only tax paying men vote" system as well. As this adds to the hoarding of property and wealth by the rich, and those who got here "First". This is really a deep topic to go down that maybe needs its own post as well. As this comment section is now kind of a mess on this post 🤣 I'll add that if you only get to vote if you have property. We end up fueling the BlackRocks of the world even most lust for property control and power. I love the constitution and the founding fathers. They also made mistakes, look where it has all ended up because they did not put into place all the proper guardrails and could not see the future entirely. I do like the idea that some people have proposed in America, and some countries like South Korea use. ~a Year of service to the country. Whether that is in the military, or some type of public service like feeding the homeless at a soup kitchen, something you cannot buy your way out of and benefits the country. But you must do to earn your citizenship at age 18. Sure I guess you could opt out of doing it, and lose the privilege of voting, that could be some peoples prerogative. Either way I think this is a worthy topic of intense debate.
