NM	Originally Posted by loosegoose Originally Posted by KeithC Only land owners over the age of 21 should be allowed to vote. Our founders wrote the voting law that way for very good reasons. Keith Didn't we fight a war partly over being taxed without representation? If we went to such a system, would you then agree to not tax the non voters at all? As in no sales tax, no income tax, no pitman-robertson tax, no gas tax, no gift tax, no capitol gains tax, etc etc etc....would you agree that if you're not allowed to vote, you don't have to pay any taxes of any sort? (Keep in mind there are plenty of rich people living in apartments who own no land, and plenty of poor people who do own land) Would you also agree that the age of majority, to join the military,sign contracts, buy a gun, etc etc should be 21? Age of majority should be 18. There are plenty of people in this country that sap more than they pay--even if you include sales tax. The leeches aren't paying, for example, capital gains taxes. It's a pretty simple equation. I could get behind no vote for those who don't contribute.

More than 50% of the population has been disenfranchised and that's probably not gonna change anytime soon.... A couple of cities control huge areas and last election they controlled the whole USA. They used a fraudulent manner of voting....it is really a sin what happened....and no real confrontation of it.....from where I sit and watch it is pretty much done, put a fork in the USA. No miracles are gonna happen. E 'Honey Badger Militia' Sleep, the anti woke adote.

It ain't like I'm ever gonna be stuck in an elevator with them. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't care to be around Trump more than a few minutes, but I'd vote for him again in a heartbeat. Voting based on personality doesn't make any sense But voting based on character makes sense.
