I read your link. What I propose is not banned.

Vote buying is illegal. Vote buying is defined as pay for not voting or as pay for voting in a particular way. I propose pay for voting, not for voting in a particular way. But I should have made clear that I suggest a law be passed to give all voters a reward. The funding of the reward could be provided from private donations.

Here's twenty dollars for everyone who votes

Would increase how many vote. And if more vote then the will of the people will be better reflected in who is elected. Isn't that a good thing?

All voters would get a prize no matter who they voted for. It's note vote for me, it is vote for whoever you want.
