I lived in Mississippi when they had both. The poll taxes were not much $2 - $3 and the money was used to pay the poll workers. The literacy tests were very basic, probably at the 3rd grade level at the most and were just to see that the voter had some basic concept of government. Of course, The Federal Government declared this discriminatory and banned both. The average IQ of the electorate has been dropping ever since.
The result is an islamo-fascist usurper in The White House and a Congress headed by one of the stupidest women in the Country.
I think BHO is much more of a socialist than he is a fascist. Fascism has a strong nationalist component. BHO HATES America.
