Here’s the awful truth, as I have witnessed it: the sacred responsibility of voting is a right like any other - it is taken for granted by too many who haven’t had to sacrifice for it, or haven’t experienced the places that don’t have it. Our country’s success has, to a great extent, contributed to our nation’s vulnerability. To turn a chestnut on its head, too often “one man’s treasure is his children’s trash.”

This is true that it is a right taken for granted by those who have not had to make sacrifices. But either a person believes that a right to vote is inalienable or not.

Once the government removes a right, it is gone for good.

A free country gets the chance to vote its freedom away only once.
