Why don't taxpayers have the right to specify which areas of expenditures their taxes support? What would specifying categories look like?
What are the pluses and minuses of taxpayers choosing where their money goes?
Which existing categories you would choose to support?
Which new areas would you would like to see your taxes support?
Which existing categories would you like cut back?

One minus would be that the wealthy (who pay more taxes) would have even more political influence than they already do. But I think that being able to allocate a certain percentage of your taxes to programs of your choosing would be a great idea.
Hmmm. Good one. Maybe if there were a system to require the government to allocate $$ as taxpayers request, there needs to be some way to so allocate by numbers of taxpayers and not by amount of tax paid? This would include those whose tax is zero because of tax credits? What do you think?
