Wow, I'm not suggesting dictatorship style reeducation camps. I make this observation - in my sociology classes in college, there were few if any white males in attendance (and definitely not conservative white males). We need more social science education in the schools and not just to those students who already understand equity and fairness.


She must be taking sociology classes at Berkeley.

Well considering white men kept minorities and women from voting for over a 100 years it only seems right.


I sincerely wish you and your ilk would try this.

So Arabs can't vote either right? Because you know they never had anything to do with slavery or oppression of minorities and women...

Some wrestling guy has ONE BILLION. We should tax that wealth to create jobs. He's not - he's hording his wealth as most of the uber wealthy do, or trying to find a way to cheat working people out of their jobs.


I have never worked for a poor man before. I don't understand the mentality of super taxing the rich.

The result will be driving them out the country and taking business and jobs with them.

Thank God.

The progressive agenda is fricking terrible and would cause the rapid collapse of modern civilization.

And obvious trolls are obvious.

Voting should be restricted to tax paying males over the age of 25

income tax paying males. But once we get rid of that then yes, I suppose it would apply to all males.

I have no desire to restrict voting on arbitrary criteria like gender, race, etc. Those are merit-neutral attributes.

We should require a baseline knowledge of government structure, economics, geopolitics before granting the privilege of voting.

You assumed wrong. And there are some states without a sales tax, so that would leave a lot of males out

What about age? I say 18 is too young. The human brain isn't even fully developed till 25

So you think it's ok to ban people from voting.

Long dead white people absolved. Thanks TJ!


He's too stupid to realize that's what he just did.

Age isn't merit. I know of 16 year olds that have a much greater understanding of economics and geopolitical issues than 95% of adults.

The fact that you've existed for 30 years doesn't mean you have the first clue about politics - most don't.

The founders placed voting in the hands of those with skin in the game. This notion that EVERYONE needs to vote has got us in the mess we are in today. Half of this country couldn't tell you the first thing about our government.

Not really. The Constitution as written in 1787 is basically silent on voting. There is no federal right to vote.
