fatal flaw in our voting system. once the leeches gain more than 50% of the voting block, its all over.

right to vote should be gained, only when you are a taxpayer. Anyone who lives on the public dime, loses that right. why should anyone who is a drain to society, be allowed to vote for more of the same?

I agree. Only people who have a stake in the fate of the nation, who have put their money where their mouths are by earning their own keep and paying taxes from their income, should have the vote. Freeloaders will always vote for whatever allows them to suck the blood of the productive, no matter what it does to everybody else's freedom.
