soros can't just give $100M and get 1M votes.

and where would that money even fucking go?

he can hand out $100 bills, but can't make people vote the way he wants.

the fed reserve? good fucking luck

general revenue

yeah, again, good luck

why not just cut out the middleman and count bank accounts instead of votes

you haven't given a good reason why this isn't viable or wouldn't produce superior results.

the reason why you wouldn't count bank account balances is because we want to give everyone, regardless of income, the same choice. the same sacrifice.

a very small sacrifice.

your quip about a starship troopers system is already leagues beyond this retardation

again, that's not refuting anything.

>small
>$100
I don't think you've ever had a ground level job

that's a trivial amount of money

It really isn't

@pwtdo Voter ID would solve that issue

You have to pay like $50 for a driver's license or something

as an administrative fee

$27 last I did

true. the reason why voter ID is always defeated is because of the poll tax argument.

and the soft bigotry of low expectations.

Whatever the number is, if you're too poor to pay for an ID, you're probably on welfare, in which case it's a conflict of interest for you to vote anyway since you'd likely vote yourself more largesse

because apparently one's ethnicity makes one incapable of going to a government office and filling out a form.

that's exactly my point.

I guess black people aren't allowed to drive or drink or fly on planes either, cuz muh racism

plenty of poor methbillies wouldn't pony up their $100 either

Good, fuck 'em

rather by lotto tickets or dip

exactly

Voter ID

the whole fucking point is to limit the franchise

Yes

If you can afford lotto tickets and booze but not voter ID, you don't get to vote

But that’s only part of it

The 19th amendment... needs some amending

<:smugon:512048583806025739>

I imagine, at worst, you'd find some bleeding heart liberal with too much money setting up a charity to pay for the extremely poor to get IDs and I'd even be fine with that, since someone's voluntarily putting up their own money as surety for it

we should fucking defend and enforce the definition of the franchise from non-citizens, not take it away from actual citizens

yep, someone giving you the $100 is fine. they can't make you vote one way or the other.

Service guarantees citizenship

they aren't in the polling booth with you
