    How about a voting age limit instead? If you’re receiving Social Security payments for retirement, then you’re too old to vote because you’re actively pulling from the government and not contributing any more. /s

    These arguments are pointless and only serve to further polarize and divide society; they aren’t made in good faith. In my opinion, if you are paying taxes (ie working) you should be allowed to vote. Wasn’t the whole argument for independence made from “taxation without representation”?
