What about people who don't pay tax because they don't earn enough. Should they be allowed to vote?

They still owe taxes, it's just that some years their obligation is $0.

Edit: also there are things like fuel and sales tax that almost everyone owes, even if they don't have to pay income tax.

I don’t think I should be eligible to vote in every city, state or country I’ve paid sales taxes in over a year.
