then something happened in 1920, and we have this mess
not gonna say what happened during that time, but a certain someone who never earned the right to vote, sort of just 'got it'
nah nah, it's never just one thing, that's honestly too easy of a solution.
is it?
IS IT!?
it's always a series of small things, operating in tempo
yes
1913. the fed was created, and the federal income tax system
Okay, guess we'll never solve the problem then
which in turn shifted the way money flows in the US away from the states
it used to go, Citizen - STATE - Federal
and the states determined how much money the federal was allowed to have
now it's Citizen - FEDERAL - State
and the states have to essentially beg for their own money in the form of the federal subsidy
I agree
Direct Unapportioned taxes, as they are in the Federal Income Tax are Illegal according to the US constitution
however, i believe the looming issue lies in unbridled democracy
however, it's always been upheld in court
of course, those courts were always federal court, so no fucking surprise there
federal courts are like the rest of the government... massively overreaching their mandate.
the people doing the voting are too stupid to realize they are voting away their own futures, freedoms and self determination
we need a net taxpayer votes for congress, and the veterans and soldiers that can meet the male standard vote for the president
and the citizens vote for their own state governors i guess
that way no one can lobby without losing their rights to being anet taxpayer and thus the stupid law or policy they lobbied can be repealed or remended by the sensible net taxpayers
and while I don't believe that we should go back in time with regards to women/people of color/etc being able to vote on those factors, I do think you shouldnt be allowed to vote unless you can pass a basic civics course
the ability to vote can be more devestating or rewarding than a gun
women and colored people can vote congress if they're net taxpayers, same with the president if you can meet the male standard
no racism or sexism here
I had to take gun safety, driver's ed and training courses on operating a power loader and fork lift
you should have to take a class and pass to be able to vote
true equality of opportunity
and Why is that you might ask? Because all of those things are extremely dangerous tools in the hands of an ignorant
people are too scared or haven't felt enough pain i guess
#repealthe19th
it's complacentcy
i think you're being too focused on one group of people
nope
im a woman anyways
none of these problems you put forward can be solved whilst women can vote (without earning it)
