Personally I think one of our biggest problems is universal voting rights. Only people who make a net contribution in taxes should be able to vote. Otherwise it becomes 2 wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner.

Though since there isn't a federal sales tax it would probably make sense they wouldn't be able to vote federally. There is a chance of that happening, but it should be a self correcting system. If government assistance is pulled from people, they just opened a new voting block.
