Nikogas: I don't disagree with no free rides.
I do believe in the welfare of those who have become dependent on living a meager life and yes!! they too contributed!!!And just because someone does not own land can't vote???? you sir are asking for a communist country and you don't even see it. That statement is so ignorant, or maybe you do believe that being a citizen of the USA is not good enough To vote??

Ignorant?
Why should a renter be able to vote to raise my taxes?
If you are not a home owner you should not be able to vote.
If your on welfare (you're probably renting) I don't think you have a right to vote.
Unless it affects your taxes directly you shouldn't be able to vote.
Why should the home owners (especially non-working or retired) be responsible for every welfare and renter in town?
That is not fair to us. We need to take another look at the requirements for voting for every school district.
Not ignorant, jut tired of paying higher taxes to allow slackers to live the good socialistic life.
How many months out of a year does it now take an individual worker/homeowner to earn his annual amount due federal, state, local, real estate taxes?
The worker/home owner is the serf working 5 months out of a year just paying taxes so the slackers can enjoy the good socialistic life..
I'd like to keep some of my money to spend on my self.... hardly ignorant.

Thank God you are not in the actual position to dole out civil rights in this country to your choice of people.
Voting is a civil right not a property owners right.
Your stand on this is reprehensible as well as being downright Un-American!

Until the right of women to vote it was strictly property owners. When the flood gates of Civil Right's opened is when the socialistic behavior started. I'm with Galrads on this. The leaches have begun to take more than just some of the blood.

venusenvy: Heres a great idea...Why not spend BILLIONS on foreign wars and let your seniors starve??
Last poll said 70 percent of Americans want the troops home.
That's kind of the point of this thread. Both parties are alike. They do what they want and the hell with what the citizens want.

Oh please, thank God neither of you have any real power in this except to have one vote, one voice and that you might have others that agree with you both does not mean you are in a majority.
This does not surprise me about you either sir. I suppose you two are proud to be in the home of the brave and land of the free, it's just you want to be more free and have more rights than others.
It just isn't set up that way, our founding fathers saw to that. This country was peopled by those escaping that kind of tyranny in Europe I believe.

Actually miss. Almost every person not a White male is more equal than me.
Not to offend but
Let's see.
Gay and Lesbian hiring preferences in government hiring.
Equal opportunity; If your a minority of any status you go to the head of the line even if your score was lower than someone that was qualified.
Oh yeah we have to keep our mouths shut because it might offend someone and well the speech police will get you for speaking your mind.
Lot's and lot's of people are tired of the crap.
People who have nothing invested in the system should not have a say in it. period.

Sounds like you are living in the wrong country if you feel that way strongly enough and are not just grousing because that is what you do.
Once again sir, if enough people vote the way you think the constitution and laws might change on civil rights, or the Supreme court might make a ruling but that is the only way to change our American civil rights.

Dadude62: I heard from someone in another thread that they can find employment in Alaska 14 hours a day paying 50k a year and that they should stop complaining. That there is so much work there that it can reduce the unemployment numbers from 10% to 6%.
Were they talking fishing season or the slope? These jobs are dangerous and while some pay is good, you need good luck and lots of patience.....Alaska is still a good ole boy kinda town in some respects!------ This thread is Archived ------

If someone doesn't have an investment in themselves by themselves they have no interest in anything but to take more and more from others doing all the work.
You should never leave California as you will probably suffer culture shock discovering that not everywhere in the U.S. do good people expect handouts from the government.
The world would be better off if California would follow Atlantis' act... in my opinion.
No more taxes!
Maybe you adopt this mentality.... "Have we got a college? Have we got a football team?....Well we can't afford both. Tomorrow we start tearing down the college." (Groucho)
This is a Republic in the U.S.A. Why give some slacker the right to vote me into indebtedness? Pure insanity in my opinion.
I hear you guys are shutting don your freeways right now in fear of Armageddon!
We contend that for a nation to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle. (Winston Churchill)

Long time ago someone said that democracy will florish until the people discover they can vote themselves a raise.
He's wrong but he has a point.
