A near impossible literacy test Louisiana used to suppress the black vote

I think the weight of your vote should come from the amount of taxes you pay, up to some cap. Can someone explain to me like I’m 12 why this is a bad idea?

Can you explain to me why votes should be weighted differently at all?

When you have a tough problem and need advice, do you turn to your unemployed uncle? The homeless guy on the street corner? Of course not. Not all opinions are of equal value. Pretending that they are of equal value is asinine.

Not allowing poor people to vote is just such an obvious recipe for disaster I don't understand how anyone can't see this. Homeless people and your unemployed uncle NEED to vote so that people like you, who evidently hate them, don't vote to toss them into the Bone Crusher 9000.

Your feelings on the matter don't constitute an argument.

Hysterical nonsense.

> Your feelings on the matter don't constitute an argument.

Nor do your feelings that poor people are de facto dumber than rich people.

I said no such thing.
