Should We Lower The Voting Age?

[The Rabbi]

sounds like a lot of us don't want people to vote b/c they think uninformed people shouldn't.


I see a shit ton of hypcrassy

Most people cannot name a US senator. I dont mean their senators. I mean any senator. What kind of informed decision can they possibly be making at the polls? That's how you end up with empty suits like Obama.
Screw all of that. Voter qualification tests and property tests. You dont know shit, you aint got shit, you aint voting.

The GOP feels voting should be reserved for only the 1%ers, with a picture identification held in a gold plated envelope.

There should be an IQ test....

Then again, there'd never again be another Obama type elected... ever.

 

[Two Thumbs]

Do away with voting entirely and pick legislators randomly like we do with jurors.

well, all things considered.....

I mean, it's not like it can get any worse, and think of the savings if we don't have to pay for elections, and we eliminate lobbyists because no one has election funds to consider.

I'm only half joking at this point.

What is stopping the states from allowing ten-year-olds to vote now?

voting is a right

If the franchise is not extended to every law-abiding citizen, it is not a right.

a vote to allow the passage of new laws


but 10 y/o don't have the right to work, so they don't get the right to vote

Apparently so is having 10 kids you can't take care of... look where that has gotten us. Perhaps we need to re-evaluate some of these rights.

interesting point

but I think you should be old enough to understand what you are doing well enough to do it alone

Ten-year-olds can exercise the privilege if they live in states that allow it. As of now, though, no state allows it, I don't believe.

Or.. you could aspire to something more than being a renter. I mean seriously, who in their right mind pays rent?

LOL

We could go to a corporate system of some sort. Let's say we allow people to buy shares of America. Everyone gets one share or vote. If people want more of a say in how things are run, they can buy more shares.

Dems feel anyone who can cast a shadown should be able to vote. Heartbeat not required. Except veterans and active duty military.They dont want them to vote.
