Democratic lawmakers proposed what they call the Automatic Voter Registration Act of 2016 to streamline the registration process.

Voter turnout in the U.S. typically falls behind other developed countries.

Automatic registration = automatic voting

Exactly. Just tell us which party you would like to vote for and unless we hear otherwise we'll just cast those votes for you.

The one law that I’m expecting for democrats to introduce in the not-too-distant future, is one where the whole world, all 7 billion+, are made eligible to vote.

The democrats’ rationalization will be something like, “we are, after all, the ‘sole’ superpower, and everything we do does affect the rest of the world, so, the whole world is entitled to vote for the U.S. President”.

Before income taxes, only property owners paid taxes.

Thats why only property owners could vote.

Why would people who didnt pay taxes need representation?

Yup. Thats the plan.

Since the Rat Party doesnt have the support of the Americans, they have to import foreigners to vote for them.

So why bother having them even in the country?

Rat logic.

Yep! That’s what we need...UNBRIDLED VOTER FRAUD!

The new American way: Have those who do not pay taxes to overwhelm those who do, in order to live the good life free of responsibilities and the need to actually work for a living living off of the backs of those who do work.

Seems like a good way to end the great American experiment in one quick action. And...the stupid new generation of “so called Americans” will go for it like rats after cheese.
