A country for everyone is a country for no one

I’ve seen people saying that the American flag is racist and that all flags need t be celebrated

Makes me angry as hell

syndrome from the incredibles logic

But voting rights should certainly be restricted for who they were meant for at this country's foundation.

voting rights should be restricted *anyway*

i don't want stupid white people voting any more than i want stupid black people voting

imagine if you need to show an ID to vote

@TraitorGG voting rights is a pretty shaky topic anyway because you can’t just say which citizens can and can’t vote. It sort of defeats the purpose of a citizenship

just imagine how much that would change things

i don't want voting. fuck democracy

Democracy can work if the most qualified can vote

you aught to have at least held a job and only vote in exchange for being on the "first to draft if we go to war" list

No it doesn't. in 1790 the only voters were white, landowning males.

I am a citizen yet I cannot vote? Do you know why? I'm not 18. Thats a restriction and yet I am a citizen.

It is the exact same concept as an age restriction.

yeah but telling people kids should vote

well

nevermind

But the 18 year old age restriction is for a valid reason

it probably *would* go over well

As is the white and landowning males one.

How

not so sure about landowning

It ensures they are 1) The ones that were meant for this nation and 2) have a stake in this nation, aren't freeloaders

Landowners have a vested interest in the success of a nation. An inner city minority on welfare does not.

Other than "muh gibs."

although the having a stake in the nations success philosophy is perfect

yeah but what about people who just live in gated suburbs

If I were to vote, I’d say I’d probably end up voting for the same person as any of you guys

and bought houses, and worked hard, but just don't own land

Then make military service available as well.

But I do agree that people with a stake in the nation is important

4 years in the military is plenty of sacrifice to be granted the right to vote.

ehhhhhhh

How about this? People on welfare or government assistant shouldn’t vote

if it were me there would be a list of slightly more simple requirements to vote *all* of which would have to be met, and a list of things that would automatically get you banned from voting

Essentially, freeloaders btfo

And an ID should be required for voting as well

You need an ID to do damn near everything else
