I love it when people say "WE" pay you or "OUR" taxes this or that.

Those are usually the people NOT paying taxes.

Hell, if we go by the logic of "more taxes" = "more rights", then let's go all the way. Everyone gets votes based on their taxable income.

Let's see how many votes red states get vs California and New York.

• In 2016, 140.9 million taxpayers reported earning $10.2 trillion in adjusted gross income and paid $1.4 trillion in individual income taxes.
• The share of reported income earned by the top 1 percent of taxpayers fell slightly to 19.7 percent in 2016. * * Their share of federal individual income taxes fell slightly, to 37.3 percent.
• In 2016, the top 50 percent of all taxpayers paid 97 percent of all individual income taxes, while the bottom * 50 percent paid the remaining 3 percent.
• The top 1 percent paid a greater share of individual income taxes (37.3 percent) than the bottom 90 percent combined (30.5 percent).
• The top 1 percent of taxpayers paid a 26.9 percent individual income tax rate, which is more than seven times higher than taxpayers in the bottom 50 percent (3.7 percent).

I am in the top 5% of earners. My income tax accounts for about 9x more than half the country. And I say it's safe to assume the bottom 50% are red states.

My dirty leftist ass should get 9 votes during next election.

But of course, she wouldn't like THAT logic.
