    This is a poor take, a few to vote is not the easy to go about this. Even owing taxes shouldn’t bar someone from voting as voting is about being represented and everyone deserves representation. Even hardened criminals.

        Many people aren’t represented in America, e.g., DC, Peurto Rico, people who were in prison. Taxation without representation doesn’t exist in America.
