Seems overly complicated, hard to administer and easy to game. Nice positive benefit/negative drain binary choice would be easier.
Just check returns filed in April for people voting in November.
Given time, everything is "easy to game".
Especially when idiot politicians decide to award a bunch of 'weight' to being the right color/sex.
It's how voting became a free for all in this country.
Your solution isn't as simple as you present it either. Disability isn't taxable, nor are military allowances. Are disabled workers and soldiers to receive half a vote under your system?
And I see you lumped in social security with welfare- you realize that's not a freebie; workers are required to pay into it their entire career. Are they supposed to only receive half a vote because they retired?
As to "gaming" my system: OK, if you serve a tour in the military, or go to college and get a job to get more votes, so what? It's an measure of your contributions to society, not you motivations. People that put in the effort get a greater say in government, why they put in the effort is a personal matter.
