Following a previous post I would like to enquire some more... A voting system where only those who pay income tax and have children (thus nearly guaranteed vested interest in the future of the country) are allowed to vote. All votes held equally - each one as valuable as the last. Am from the UKbtw

Discussion only tax payers be allowed to vote? Something I've been debating with myself and wanted some other perspectives.

Tyranny of majority prevented where majority are not 'rich' and so want higher welfare ie UK triple lock scheme is unaffordable but impossible to vote out as elders vote so often.

Question about whether people would then vote against ie pensions but I say wont happen as others who are working will soon be hitting retirement age.

I dont think if you have never helped produce the pie you should interfere with the slices.

Happy to discuss / debate am on the fence

What is the point of the central bank?

aimed at the UK but also open to the US

Trying to learn more.

Same with interest rates... why not just leave up to consumers in banks? Just more and more I dont see the point in a central bank like the Boe or FedR
