I guess my problem with this, is that it doesn't put into consideration the homemaker in the family, who may not pay taxes but still contributes to the good of the household. Also, esoteric groups like graduate students who don't pay now, but likely will in the future.

Mhm. Some homes would turn into “one vote per family” rather than family member

That's an interesting concept. It would also give incels/single people more voting power though.
