(Answer) (Category) The Reality Sculptors "Faq-O-Matic" : (Category) "Laws We'd Like To See" :
Tax Day and Election Day are moved to the same day.
This was originally proposed a year or so back, by a Representative in Arizona, I think. He said something to the effect of "I can think of no single action that will help to reform Government, than to have people pay as they vote." (This was spotted on the cover of a Wall Street Journal.)
Could be that both fall on April 15th, or on "Super Tuesday", or some other day entirely. But they should coincide, so that Campaigners really have something to talk about in the coming election, and the Voters really have something to pay attention to.
