Then let the renters buy the land and then they can have the right to a vote.

Yeah no. I can understand if you don't want me voting on property tax and the like, and I'm ok with that since I don't own "land".

However, if you are going to tell me I can't vote at all because I don't own property, then you have no right to take my thousands of dollars in taxes every year.

Again, you don't own the land outright, so why should you get the vote?

Anything that is leveraged is not really yours.

You just eliminated 90% of the military. Good plan.

Yeah! And all the non-landowners can count as 3/5 of a person towards representation. This is a brilliant idea that's never been considered or tried before.

I swear nobody on this board ever took a US History class.
