Tax break for voting
Petition
As an American voting is essential to being a citizen of this great country. Unfortunately many Americans especially in the 18-24 age group don't see the importance in voting. Part of this is that there is not an incentive to vote and many believe that their vote does not count. We propose a tax brake for those who vote in future elections. This will work as incentive for people to go out and better their country. The break would be .5% of your federal income tax. While this would cost the US a good amount of money, overall it would benefit the country greatly because the people would be represented properly. Also, while .5% doesn't seem like a lot, to many people in the 18-24 age group this would amount to about $200. Basically you're getting payed just to fill out and ballot and better your country!
