I totally agree with that sentiment, but feel that paying into the federal coffers is practically ‘good enough’.

Ideally, I’d prefer voters to face a quick quiz at the polling place. If you can’t name your Congressional representative and at least one of your US Senators, you don’t get to vote.....

Or maybe the quiz can show up on the computer screen, and if you answer incorrectly, your vote isn’t counted. That would probably be the best way to go about such a thing.

I like that idea.

And you have to show id and proof of citizenship.

Woulden’t this invite a hanging “chad” situation?
I think filing federal tax return would be fine
