This is a question Bizarre leaps of logic

One of Nevil Shute's novels - I think it was In The Wet, posited an interesting future Britain in which people have multiple votes allocated to them, up to 7, depending on...

One by default, everyone has this
One for completing a degree, a professional qualification, or being appointed an officer in the military
One for foreign travel

then some slightly more dubious ones

One for achieving a high personal income over a certain level
One for family values - raising 2 children without divorcing

then it starts getting really surreal

One for being an official of the church
One that can only be awarded by the reigning monarch, for merit

That sounds excellent.
Other than the church bit.
