 We'd be better off is military service were requied to vote.

 Oh, did you include retired military in your diatribe above?

 Why don't you just restrict the vote to the rich, since most
 will eventually live on social security and a pension or some
 such, with more coming out of social security than paid in
 taxes.

 Of course you disenfranchise all govt employees under your
 scheme. And military personell.
