Agreed. And, I think it’s a conflict of interest that a person who is dependent on the government can vote. Our founders did not intend for the government to take care of us. Of course those who are dependent will vote to live off of us! That should end.
And what’s wrong with passing a civics test before being allowed to vote? I’ve heard the rebuttal- ‘Well then I won’t vote if I have to pass a test.’ Ok, works for me!
There are a number of reasons that the Founding Fathers didn’t want certain people to vote. One being non property owners. There are always more of them and they can vote away the property of those who own property either with taxes which should be called RENT or out right theft. The other was women being kept from voting. Unfortunately the reason for that was they felt the man was the head of the home and that their wife in secret could nullify his vote. The whole thing is a MESS no matter how you look at it. I think my treatise on “The Law” pretty much explains a lot even for those who are not so bright. https://www.courageouslion.us/p/the-law-2024
