You can't pay a person to vote for a political candidate but you can promise free stuff?

This is how fricked up our political system is. The Dims can openly promise "free" government handouts (free college, student loan forgiveness, free medical care, etc) to dupe their brain dead voters but if someone pays some person $10 to vote for their candidate they face criminal charges, what's the damn difference?
Oh technically you could say the person who paid some person $10 to vote for their candidate actually had a certifiable bribe that was carried out......but what's the difference when these Dim politicians are making even bigger political bribes with their promises of "free shite" if you vote for me? The only difference is one dupe is paid up front and the other dupe expects a bigger payout later.
The only things politicians should be promising their voters is a secure and free country with a prospering economy to apply their God given talents....anything with regards to offering government handouts should be ridiculed and frowned upon.

You don't have to pay a lot of people for their vote; you just have to pay their preacher to tell them that "GAWWWWWWWWD WANTS THIS MAN ELECTED."

Strange Sunday morning TDS laced melt....lol! God told me,

Admittedly, I've struggled with not worrying.
