A Modest Proposal

I'm reading an e-book - "Shadow of Saganami" by David Weber.

This struck me as apposite Libertarianism:

And all the Star Kingdom requires to vote is that a citizen pay at least one cent more in taxes than he receives in government transfer payments and subsidies

Now, I wonder what difference that rule would have made yesterday? I'll point out that if you include pay for government work on the negative side, I'd be disenfranchised.
