Saying "vote for us and we'll give you stuff" doesn't really sound like control to me.

It is not control like a chain would be. But if you don't support the idea that wholesale 'free money' for anyone who is willing to live off the govt teat does not secure a huge voting bloc for the DEMs while saddling the rest of society (where most of the GOP reside) with huge costs = not only for the 'free money' but also for the cost of dealing with the crime exacerbated by a growing group with no self responsibility = then you are lying to yourself.

You know it and everyone knows you know it. The wholesale magnet of 'free money' saps the soul of vulnerable people - all for the sake of easy DEM dominance of those so entrapped. The DEMs have created their own plantation where they harvest votes instead of cotton. It is despicable what they have done to the vulnerable in this country.

IF people on welfare were not allowed to vote, you would see DEM 'sympathy' for them to vanish overnight - you know that.
