Every argument I've read against the net tax payer voter system is boils down to arguments that assume: Utilitarianism is the only valid school of ethics, assuming Egalitarianism is an essential principle of democracy, the convoluted tax codes we have now must always exist, or the franchise is a fundamental right from birth for an individual in a jurisdiction; thus, all actions away from universal suffrage are a form of disenfranchisement, which is inherently bad for unexplained reasons.
If you think of a broad category that doesn't fit one of these categories of arguments against the net tax payer vote, post it.
I really want to steel-man this.
@shortstories This isn't net tax payer by itself because you've not covered what is done with the taxes and how it relates to the franchise.
So let's say if everyone pays sales tax then everyone who buys anything is a tax payer
@shortstories No, that's still not net tax payer. Net tax payer has to include the calculation for how much is spend on people and what rights are associated with that calculation. That's what makes the "net" portion.

You should look into
1 Post left Anarchism
2 Anarcho Capitalism
3 Gift based economics
4 Distributist economics
Every single one of these in some form might argue against any sort of taxation and might argue against voting, some of them might argue against money all together
In distributism you might have each family own the means of production for their occupation
If every family did farming and each family owned their own untaxed farm then you might not need money
@shortstories I have looked into these. I prefer Mises. He makes more sense and actually describes reality 95% of the time.
@DoubleD
I would propose that only corporations pay tax and that they pay a flat sales tax on gross profits which can be passed down to customers who are not corporations and simply written down as sales tax on a receipt
I propose this because it is the simplest for your average person who is not a corporation and because corporations should pay a fee for the legal protection they get.
It is the simplest tax code with minimum change to the system I can think of.
Would this be net tax payer?
