Remember taxes are a investment in our country.
We will just give you a bill every month for every stop sign,stoplight you pass, bill for police and fire training, water bill without 'We the people" helping and a large millitary bill to protect you so you don`t have to use your gun here, without 'We the People" helping. We can just send you bills without 'We the People" helping to throw in on the pool. Sure would change some votes if you had to pay to vote.

I don't want to eliminate the tax, but would absolutely support a fair tax.

There is nothing wrong in taxes to run the country. I have a problem with taxes that help people who refuse to work, and earn a living. Taxes that go to fund studies to show how fast slug slime dries at different temperatures. Taxes that fund departments of the government that Americans don't need, but are there so the people can be taxed more just for the sake of taxing.
To answer your question, no. It will not work for me.

No one has to pay to vote in this country.
Many good Americans oppose taxes for purposes that they also oppose, when these taxes are imposed by a simple majority vote by others who want to stick their hands in our pockets.
"We the People" have always, and rightly, resisted taxation without representation. Remember the Boston Tea Party?

Needless to say, you make no sense. There's a difference between limited government and no government whatsoever.
Also, the 24th Amendment prohibits poll taxes, so you can never be forced to pay to vote. It reads as follows:
"The right of citizens of the United States to vote in any primary or other election for President or Vice-President, for electors for President or Vice-President, or for Senator or Representative in Congress shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any State by reason of failure to pay any poll tax or other tax."
Nice try though.

Short answer is yes..
I am better qualified to spend the money that I earn than the Govt.
I do not want to allow politicians to take my money from me
and give it to someone else in exchange for a vote..
Taxes to pay for Police , Highways, Defense etc. are fine..
