Historically, were not voters the
property owners, the tax payers? A
poll tax, as it were. One even had
learn to read before registering to
vote in Colorado, well into the '60's.

2) Budget by voucher or elected representative? [by Anonymous on November 30, 2007]
I really thought that a large part of why I elect my state representatives is so that they can represent my interests in determining the budget. Can you picture 5 departments doing statewide PR campaigns to try to woo property owners for their vouchers?

Isn't it a bit classist to allow only property owners to determine budget priorities?
