    Isn’t it possible for one person to create multiple LLCs? Hence being able to vote multiple times?

      Yes. This is possibly the whole point.

        At that point… they could just make it official and say “$1 net worth = 1 vote”.

        It’s not like reality is that far from that already, when “1 person = 1 vote” can only cast their vote on a representative financed by someome with large enough net worth, then discard a bunch of “1 person” votes, and end up with “1 representative = 1 vote” who can further be lobbied based on someone’s or some company’s net worth.

      Sydney Australia allows businesses to vote in local elections. Businesses get 2 votes, humans get 1. So you don’t even need to own multiple companies to have an advantage over the commoners - it’s built right into the system!
