Tom Perkins: The Rich Deserve More Votes Than The Poor

Should the rich get more votes than the poor? It sounds ridiculous, but according to venture capitalist and founder of Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers Tom Perkins, the wealthy should have more votes than everyone else. Speaking at San Francisco's Commonwealth Club, Perkins, 82, was asked to share an idea that could change the world. His response? The wealthy should have more voting power than the poor. Not at all coincidentally, Perkins is worth an estimated $8 billion.
