I think people should have the right to vote if they own property and if they do not depend on government charity to survive. Man, woman, black, white — I would treat them all equally. Productive people should vote, unproductive people should not.

Property rights seem an archaic requirement, given how much people are taxed for income anyway, no?

“I think people should have the right to vote if they own property”
________________________________________________________
Are you saying that should be a requirement?
While I have heard that advocated for many years, you seem to be ignoring a vast block of truly conservative and responsible young and old voters who are not yet able to, or have sold off their estates. I was 28 before I bought my first property, and I sold off all of my properties by 2000.
