How many votes would China get?

Bannon is wrong about this. Everybody knows it should only be property owners who speak English. Damn you Bannon.

I would be ok with having only taxpayers vote too.

The problem I personally have with this (highly unlikely scenario) is, I don't own "property" (at least not any real estate), but I pay a good bit in taxes every year.
If my right to vote gets taken away just because I don't own property, I had better not see another single penny taken out of my paycheck for taxes ever again.
ETA: Assuming you don't pay taxes if you don't get to vote, that means home owner's taxes start sky rocketing and you have de-incentivized owning property.

That's quite alright, by my standards.
While it's not quite the same, in pre-Enlightenment Europe before all the upheavals, aristocrats had more legal responsibility and laws they had to abide by than the average person. With greater privilege comes greater contribution and sacrifice.

I had an Econ professor in college who proposed one vote per person and then one additional vote for every $70k of income.

What do you do with people who pay large amounts of taxes, but don't own property?
