And the interests of others who think like you, but even if we did impose this fascist requirement, the party that opposed it would be swept into power for two years to repeal it (since 50% of the population does not vote).

500 acres?  Nobody I know would be able to vote with that requirement.

Neither would anyone I know. I thought that was the point.
