David DeGerolamo” “Judson Phillips”
time for these huckleberries to go back to the grassroots and disappear from the limelight. Who appointed them? Join another teaparty.

How about you take your newbie huckleberry backside off to learn about about the US Constitution and why the Franchise was restricted to property owners.

These guys are dead on right with what they're saying. No society that has a universal warm body 'right' to vote can survive. The moochers rapidly outvote the producers and before you know it we're where we are today.

The debate about property ownership, renters and PROPERTY TAX has been around a very long time.

There is a legitimate debate ~ not sure it has much to do with "voting" although there are situations that involve ONLY PROPERTY OWNERS ~ and you end up having funny little foreign guys, minors, and people who don't even live in the community getting the vote.

A simple solution to the debate was proposed when the income tax was adopted ~ abolish property taxes.

In the end no one ended property taxes, nor excise taxes, nor even poll taxes so the income tax could be the be-all end-all of taxation.

I don't think these guys here have thought all that much about the consequences of bringing back a Property Ownership standard for all voting because you'd have People With Earned Income garnering the vote just to themselves!

Now that'd be a yuck-yuck!

actually they both are doing just fine where their at. Most of this story is lies and misrepresentation. Study history more carefully how the 14th amendment was passed under duress of the conquered south by federal troops.
