Welfare should be optional but voting to get more is just plundering.

rich people could declare their kids net tax payers to boost their votes

This also applies to government contractors.

Let it be raised to 25. When the brain has actually finished developing

If you're paying taxes with money the government is paying you you're not paying taxes.

Actually, you are right, kids working part time job would probably qualify as net taxpayers, so maybe a voting age would be necessary.

Rich people can already declare their kids net people to boost their votes.

If I can afford a nannie, a gardener, a driver, and other workers, I can afford to pay my kids a salary just so they can vote like I tell them

I know minors who work at their parents business

You can afford to pay random poor people a salary to secure their votes.

Why are you singling out kids?

you can't comepletely remove poor people from the franchise

they revolt and stuff

I'm not saying they should be disenfranchised.

the only politics that really matter to poor people are local politics

I think they should get the choice between receiving money from the government because they're charity cases who can't support themselves or working and voting like adults.

@Legalize oh bless. Ive worked as a barista too. The people I worked with should absolutely not be voting imo

agree

I'm all for moving power back to the states.

but the all volunteer military doesn't work when non military can vote

My views changed radically after I turned 23

I moved to the US when I was 24

We don't need a military large enough for everyone to be in it.

no

not like thast

you have to tie voting for war for serving in war

what we are doing doesn't work

the all volunteer military hasn't really won anything ever

I agree that voting for war should be tied to signing up for the draft.

but its been in the field continuously for decades

But also we don't vote for wars. We vote for politicians who decide to go to war whenever they feel like it.

I think the lack of consequences is what makes that keep happening

I think it's the military industrial complex that lobbies for wars.

but the voters have the last say

Most Americans don't care at all where we send the troops.

this

@Legalize unless you're actually disabled

And by disabled Im not counting all the 600 lbs fatties

I fail to see how weighing 600 lbs is not a disability.

They shouldnt be on gov assistance to begin with imo

Do you count people who paralyze themselves doing motorcycle stunts?
