I love how they are referred to as "benefits". What exactly are they benefits of? Being an irresponsible deadbeat?

I'm calling BS on this. Everyone knows Republicans are superstitious fearmongers and Democrats are rational and objective.

Dexter has the wrong last name, unless the comparison is drawn to an anvil.

There is a very common belief that the more suffrage and voting there is, the better everything is. I tend to disagree. Let me defend myself by saying that if law and government, in present times, were actually kept in their traditional confines of protecting natural rights to life, liberty, and property, then I would be fine with mass voting. The problem though, is that the primary function of government these days is monetary transfer from one group to another in the form of benefits (pork, programs, etc). Because this is the current, unfortunate primary function of the state, it means that the more people that vote, the more interests there are in the picture, trying to claw and fight for the scarce resources that the government transfers from peter to Paul.
