If we don't fix this, and make everyone have skin in the game, America is done.

It was done when they made it so any idiot off the street could vote! It used to be that only white male landowners could vote. Change the rules to only allow homeowners (regardless of gender or race) to vote, and the political landscape in this country changes DRASTICALLY!

It used to be that only white male landowners could vote.

The individual states had their own means of determining who could vote. Pennsylvania had a landowner requirement so they sold land well below going prices to increase voter numbers. I think it was Massachusetts that only required that a voter show that he had a small amount of money in his pocket when he voted. In other states there was a requirement to show proof of employment.
