The founders included property and literacy requirements to insure that outright redistribution of income wasn’t the result. That’s a big problem with democracy. We better figure out how to stop the low income illegal immigrant class from gaining control, or this country is done.
100% Correct, the Founders wanted people who had a stake in the future of the country, not those who saw it as an unlimited Charity.
So only those who contributed got to vote on how the money was spent, a very good system.
But that is not Democracy, that is Liberty, Democracy is another name for Kelptocracy.
So be for Liberty, not Democracy.
