We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

Not him. He's far from dumb.

Hell we'd be pointing in the right direction if we could keep the democrats from voting out of the cemetery.

Then we could focus on making sure that the cacksuckers only vote ONCE.

But I like your idea. Maybe it would be enough motivation for some to go out and become PRODUCTIVE members of society.

Good point. Fraud is never addressed.

Who wouldn't vote to take care of "poor" people that need taking care of?

Vote?
1. Show a W-2 or some other source of income
2. Or documentation you own property or at least pay a mortgage.
3. Pass a simple civics test
4. proof of citizenship.

Originally, you had to own property to vote. It could be real property or the tools of your trade such as a blacksmith or carpenter. The idea was you were expected to "have some skin in the game." Over the years that has changed and the number of people allowed to vote has expanded so that now you don't even need identification to vote, in some places.

I have always said public employees should not be able to vote in elections regarding the entity for which they work. State employees could not vote in state elections, county employees could not vote in county elections, federal employees, etc. Other than the military!

How about a few to live by:

1) No income tax no vote.
2) Congress lives by the same Health/Retirement programs as
their constituents. (No lifetime paychecks/healthcare)
3) Balanced Budget Amendment.
4) Term Limits - AKA - This is not a career.

The current-serving military vote doesn't count now.

Those votes are not counted til waaaaay after the election results are announced.

I was just kidding anyway, as almost none of us live in the city we work in and never vote there.

Do Cities get Federal money?

It's still voting themselves gains from the public treasury.

They will NEVER support a balanced budget amendment.
