So what's the exclusivity measurement then? Pay 50 bucks to get the vote back if you were in for stealing a safe, and pay 100 to get it back if you stole a car? 500 for felony assault, 1000 for murder? You're describing a government where anything can be bought at any price. Which to be totally honest is kind of where we're at right now, but I digress.
What's the payment options for crimes? Can you get a payment plan to vote while you make your payments, or does it need to be a lump sum? Can you finance it?
This is America. People deserve the right to vote, and I'll say it again: If you or anyone else don't think a man or woman that has served their time should be able to vote, then call your congressman and tell them to put forth a bill to change prisons into Russian-style gulags.
It isn't 'the gov't' that takes the money. In order for a felon to have their rights restored the former judge who decided their case or his representative must sign off on the legal paperwork. I chose to pay a rights restoration legal team to take care of the legal aspect. Once my rights were finally restored (took about a year) I tried to buy a gun, and found that the federal gov't hadn't yet received the news. It took me another 2 years to convince the feds that my rights really had been restored
