What if there were a voting opt-out fee for US elections?

It would be something like this: you pay nothing to vote, if you don’t want to vote you pay a small opt-out fee, if you don’t pay the fee or vote you incur a larger fine.

Would it increase the number of voters? Would it increase the number of, say, younger voters who don’t tend to vote? Is it a good idea? At what amounts would you set the fees/fines?
