How do you fix this?
1) Non-property owners cannot vote in property tax elections;
2) Persons receiving government assistance that they have NOT paid for/contributed to (e.g., Social Security, Medicare, VA) cannot vote in federal elections.

I would agree with both of your proposals. Trouble is, the Supreme Court has already deemed #1 unconstitutional.
#2 would be an all out battle that would devolve into the typical name-calling, accusations of racism, evil 1%ers or throwing granny off the cliff.
I know it is idealistic, but I wish we could have honest discussions based on responsible fiscal behavior, accountability and prudence. we're all in this together. If (when) the ship goes down, we're all gonna get wet.
