Close. Personally, I think voting should be based on productive family unit. 1 vote per household. The ‘white male land owner’ thing was a proxy for that. In today’s world you can be any race you want and we can redefine land owning, but it makes sense. Letting children vote was also a bad idea.
Agreed to some degree, but not fully. However, I surely would prefer to maintain my right to vote, since my husband and I co-own property. Also, if two are working in a household, even if one is working part time so as to care for /homeschool children I believe that sort of woman is more qualified to vote than an unemployed single person who owns nothing (regardless of sex or age).
Except that women have a biological imperative to vote for taking resources from men. So we'd just end up fucked anyway.
And that's why things will collapse instead of reversing course. Because the chain has been thrown over the edge. Women vote for more power and resources for themselves, regardless of merit. And once they get more, it just becomes that much harder to stop the inertia. Where we are now, there is nothing that will stop it.
