“If someone circulated a Consitutional amendment to restrict voting to male property owners only, I would vote for it in a heartbeat.”
Would you really? Or would you eventually have to dust off that magic wand of yours... (now relegated to deciding who wins American Idol and the Super Bowl since women and other leeches can’t vote in elections) and wave it once again when your guys lose the election and you’re ticked off about it?
We had a lot of crappy Presidents prior to the ladies and the leeches voting, you know.
“but the sad reality is that a lot of our runaway socilialism is directly related to the votes of women and those who are supported by the government, a huge overlap existing between the two groups.”
If you think you can wipe out welfare (I won’t go so far as to call it socialism like you) in all its forms by eliminating various populations of voters, you are truly more clueless than the voters who offend you. As I said before, 49% of MALES voted for Obama. Many people I know through my son’s preschool, neighbors, family, etc., are male property owners who supported Obama.
Yes I really would.
And as I said before, if you relegated the vote to only propoerty owners, then you would eliminate all the MEN on assistance that rely on the government tit to support them and the remainder of the men would overwhelmingly NOT vote for Socialist presidential candidates. I have a close friend who makes good money, owns a home and donated to Obama’s campaign. He is still in the minority of men. Your similar anecdote doesn’t make them a majority of men.
My point is very simple - restrict voting to those who produce because the takers have no right to vote to receive more from they who produce.
I comnpletely understand your reaction to my post, as I would also be upset if someone was calling out my entire group and saying it is a big part of the problem. But I told you exactly what I would do and I meant it.
I would also be quite happy to see women keep the vote, but restrict voting rights to only property owners, or at worst, only those who pay federal income taxes. That would be just fine with me.
But there is no denying that since women have gotten the vote, we have been racing toward socialism. Many more women than men are on welfare and assistance, many of them single mothers. Women tend to vote in greater proportions than men. Add those together, and you get a much higher portion of female voters voting to surrender freedom to insure their security. That has been a fact over the past decades. I didn’t just make that up. It is an obvious fact to anyone who wants to do the research.
Men are FAR less likely to vote for a candidate based on his looks alone, but women do this all the time — completely ignoring the issues and voting just because the man looks good or looks presidential.
I don’t give a damn how we reform voting as long as we restrict voting to those who produce and prohibit from voting, those on the dole who are not producing. That is my entire point.
So I stand with my initial statement. I think US voting should be restricted to male property owners only, or at most, males who pay federal taxes. If that was not possible, then I could easily live with all property owners, or at most, all US citizens who pay federal property taxes.
