Ed Nelson says:No, we are certainly not suggesting that the poor should have no voting rights. We are, however, suggesting that America is on a downward path. And while there are multiple reasons for this crisis, a huge reason is that the government is creating a class of citizens that is wholly dependent on the state for its lodging and sustinance.They are (1) government workers who now outnumber Americans working in the private sector; permanent welfare recipients; permanent unemployment recipients; and illegal aliens.In the old days, a politician would hang our near the voting booths handing out five dollar bills if people voted for him. Today, they hand out unemployment, welfare, food stamps, public housing, free health care, etc… to an underclass of Americans that have been enslaved by our government.And the few remaining working Americans and small businessmen are being forced to pick up the tab for all of this outrageous political corruption.As for whether the poor should have voting rights, I kind of like the idea of limiting voting rights to people who pay taxes, in any amount, so they would have some skin in the game and might care about what our government is doing other than feeding them.- Ed Nelson says:Oops! Almost forgot. Illegal aliens, in massive numbers ARE voting. And we don’t get our information from FOX news.First, all illegal aliens that have been granted amnesty are voting, along with the hundreds of relatives imported under our family reunification policies.Second, thanks to Bill Clinton and the Motor-Voter law, all illegal aliens who apply for driver’s licenses are asked if they would also like to register to vote! And under Motor-Voter, the motor vehicle employees are prohibited from telling them that this privilege is limited to U.S. Citizens and have been warned that if they dare to ask if the person is a U.S. citizen, they will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law by the U.S. Civil Rights commission.
