Agree

Yes, any citizen that pays taxes should be allowed to vote

The Left Bloc might agree with this statement to some extent, as they generally support policies that expand democratic participation. However, their focus is more on social justice and equality, so they might not emphasize the tax-paying aspect as a primary criterion for voting rights. Instead, they would likely advocate for broader measures to increase voter access and participation.
