No surprise that James Madison felt that way. After all among his property holdings were slaves.

There is still time for the Democrats to find someone to assassinate Trump so there’s no need to be printing up any ballots yet.

I find that idea a bit un-American. IIRC correctly a number of years back some Bostonians had a party. Something to do with taxation without representation. Pretty much anyone who buys anything pays at a minimum some sales tax. If they have a job where their income is reported they generally pay income tax. Of course there are many other forms of taxes that non-property owners pay. So essentially you’re saying that those who don’t own property shouldn’t get to vote on what taxes are levied and how those taxes are spent? Sounds like tranny to me.

Then in your mind since the property I once owned is now ensconced in a trust because my child is disabled you don’t think I should have the right to vote?

Edit: When considering your answer keep in mind the I served my country for four years as an active duty enlisted man, 1 year as an active reserve and 1 year in the inactive reserves. In addition I served my community as a commissioned LEO for 15 years.

Oops forgot to mention that I paid well over $15,000 in taxes last year and you don’t think I should get to vote on how those taxes got levied or how they will be spent?

Actually, I believe the right to vote should be joined to owning property and paying taxes. We have a crap-tion of people. organizations and corporations that live off the government dole. They do not have any skin in the game so they shouldn't be able to vote on taxing those that do.

Printing money to pay for an expanding federal budget is taxation through inflation

Don't take a job doing mind reading and please, read my post again, with highlight and bold added:




Property is anything (items or attributes/tangible or intangible) that can be owned by a person or entity. Property is the most complete right to something; the owner can possess, use, transfer or dispose of it.

I can conclude from your post that voters should only come from military vets and LEOs.

Well that was a nice attempt to fix a **** up. I suppose if one owns a pair of pants, a shirt and shoes that makes them a property owner since those items are tangible if the then buy a 10 cent piece of bubble gum and pay a penny in sales tax then they are a taxpayer so pretty much everyone qualifies

I didn't fuck up anything, you just didn't like my idea.

As it would need to be a Constitutional amendment, that would need to be determined, probably something north of $100k OTOH, the democrats will probably want an possession of EBT card or what ever an illegal carries across the border, which ever is less.
