This sounds very good until it is actually put in practice, when people realise that those who have all the dollars have all the power. Now you have an unaccountable oligarchy.
> Also, using your dollars to vote means you lose those dollars. So rich people can vote each dollar only once, just like everyone else.
That’s hilarious. As if those billionaires were not making the median yearly income in a week.
> The problem with voting with your dollars is that people with more dollars get more votes.
Eh, the biggest and most successful companies on the planet cater to mass markets. The system seems to work fairly well for average people. (And we all suspect the most important politicians cater to tiny elites.) Also, using your dollars to vote means you lose those dollars. So rich people can vote each dollar only once, just like everyone else.
