Landowners only? What's to stop the billionaires from buying all the land in the next 100 years then never letting it get out of their family? Then only the billionaires can vote. Landowners only is AMAZING for the rich and the elite.
But you said with someone else you agree. Do you not see the obviously slippery slope here? You don't think poor people have any stake in the game and shouldn't have a say?
What's to stop rich people from bussing in a bunch of poor immigrants who will vote for them ? You know like what they're literally doing now with our bs voting system.
My point is there is not a system we could dream up that an psychopathic oligarchy won't corrupt.
So ima stick with the founding fathers original idea that you shouldnt vote if you don't have skin in the game. Just on principle alone.
As a human being and a citizen of your country, you LITERALLY have your skin in the game. IT's such a stupid idea in my opinion. As if policy doesn't affect anyone but the well off land owners.
No, it's a completely stupid idea. Something like 95% of the land in the US is owned by old rich white men. I can start to see why you'd want this. Makes me wonder about your morals, then again, you do love you some Trumplestiltskin.

What a dumb idea.
I meant that's not my idea that was the founding fathers original concept. So you can take it up with them.
But you said with someone else you agree. Do you not see the obviously slippery slope here? You don't think poor people have any stake in the game and shouldn't have a say?
Ridiculous.

I never said it was working, but landowners only is truly stupid at this point in time.
