If they can be used for a position in a draft, they can vote. If not, they have no skin in the game and cannot vote. It’s principle.
I’m not your friend, I’m not saying it to your face, and i couldn’t care less if you get irritated by what my opinion is after you asked me for it.
Google gerrymandering. This is not it.
No, it’s because they’re clueless and dont know why they’re saying what they are saying.
Should we lower the voting age to 16? If you say “no because theyre clueless”, it’s gerrymandering - by your logic.
So move.
You don’t even live in my country you loon.
I’m saying you shouldn’t be able to vote for someone who can send everyone off to a war they dont want to fight, except you.
18 is when someone is considered to legally be an adult
Raise the age of consent, drinking age, age to purchase a firearm, join the military, age to get married, age to own property etc to 25 and fine… voting age can be 25…
You wish to manipulate boundaries in a manner that would ensure the number of conservative votes are maximised.
I.e only the wealthiest (property owners) can vote, more likely to have military service (tends to skew conservative), 25+ (more likely to vote conservative). You only want wealthy, millitary ready men and women (wait… what do you think of women being in the milliary?) To be able to vote… and of the 25+ crowd… only half of millenials own property…
In the end you’d be looking at the vast majority of those voting being 40+… meaning your side can win without pushback… that and say 80% of Gen Z under your ideas would never be able to vote… further solidifying your win.
It’s a mixture of gerrymandering and disenfranchisement.
Either way… feel free to have the last word. I’m also out.
Does someone who has adopted count as someone with children? Say the couple can’t conceive due to fertility issues or something?
Also, why is this a necessity? So everyone who votes has to take family values into account? Not that family values aren’t important (they most certainly are!) but not everyone who currently votes has a family, therefore that may reflect in the candidates they vote for.
Essentially, you both need to come out and say you want an alternative to a democratically elected constitutional republic
Which you HAVE said before, therefore I respect that.
