I am being serious here.
These young men and women are giving up their lives for their country. If we expect this of them to fight and fight well, then we should also expect them to vote well.
That they do not and choose poorly, is it the fault of the kids or of those who taught them? That the kids have taken their liberal education and are wising up as they hit the real world, tells you everything you need to know about them.
Poorly educated perhaps, but not going to stay liberal.
well, that’s fine for last election’s 18 year olds. no doubt some will see the light.
but this election cycle brings another crop of 18 year olds, most of whom have no responsibilities (and therefore nothing to lose by voting idiotically). they will vote overwhelmingly Dim, not to mention the fraud. their voting education will also come at our expense. and so on, and so on.
one radical solution is multi-tiered voting rights but that is not gonna ever happen.
how about this:
- lower voting age to 16 years old
- can’t vote if someone claims you as dependent (no matter what age)
- no voting for welfare recipients (they have ‘opted out’ of their right for as long as they wish to)
- no votes while in prison (post-conviction), but after release/end of probation, all, even felons, have their rights restored.
other exceptions can be found, I’m sure
see, told you I was a radical. you oughta hear my plan on alcohol and driving rights.
