Okay, here is proof that you are wrong.
First, lets say the deficit was 1 trillion dollars. To help eradicate it, we increase taxes, or add a poll tax. Over time, the tax comes in, ergo eradicating said deficit, and then after a period of time (say, 4 years), there would be no more deficit.
Now, you know why your own statement ran away.

That above all is why we shouldn't reinstate them, for they will be used to keep Blacks and Hispanics from voting. We might as well reinstate Literacy Tests while we're at it.

You don't understand Juche. They're a perfect democracy and they circumvened Arrow's impossibility theorem.
The point is that the set of all electors (the demos) contains only three people: Kim Yong-Il, the Eternal Leader (voting through the present Kimmie avatar), and a random NK citizen.
Unrestricted domain: the outcome of the elections depends only on the preferences. Check.
Non-dictatorship: it's not based on the preferences of a single person. It's just that the Eternal Leader and the present Kimmie avatar always happen to agree. Check.
Pareto efficiency: Juche is what makes North Korea BEST Korea, and you can't get better than best. Check.
Indipendence of irrelevant alternatives: any alternative to the ideas of the Eternal Leader is considered irrelevant. Check.
Brilliant. Probably saves the country money too, and does away with all that unnecessary "debate" and "legislating" that the Western imperialists are always going on about.

Lackland wrote:It should be noted that the Twenty Forth amendment of the U.S. constitution explicitly prohibits poll taxation. This is a voting rights issue, and poll taxes are discriminatory in nature against minorities and the poor. Upon passage in 1962 the amendment made poll taxation unconstitutional at the federal level. The Twenty Forth Amendment is one of the so called voting rights Amendments, and the Supreme Court Decision of Harper V. Virginia Board of Elections ( 1966 ) affirmed by a 6-3 decision that poll taxation was indeed unconstitutional at all levels. The 6-3 ruling on Harper V. Virgina Board of Elections ( 1966 ), noted that poll taxes also violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States constitution.
Any attempt to reinstate poll taxes would require the United States to strike the Twenty Forth Amendment from the constitution, along with the possibility of removing the Fourteenth amendment. This will not happen of course, as any politician who attempts such will be driven from office by a large and angry majority who will not take kindly to the possibility of their voting rights possibly being stripped away. It's likely that such an individual will be lynched and killed by said mob as well.
