Voter registration, while certainly illegal, doesn't do anything but potentially line the pockets of those paid to register voters.

If someone is being paid to register voters, the person who is paying must have a reason. I can't think of a reason to pay someone to register voters unless it is that those so registered will vote. And if the votes thus cast are totally random (quantum theory votes?), is the philanthropist who is paying for the votes just making sure that citizens, who might not do so, are exercising their civic duty? Or is the "philanthropist" specifically requiring registration of voters in specific areas (inner city) who vote 98% Democrat and might not otherwise be inclined to vote? And how do you measure if the bought and paid for votes were cast? Of course, there is the possibility that the "philanthropist" is just giving the vote registerer some busy work to justify "lining his pocket."
