Vivek Ramaswamy suggested canceling Juneteenth, calling it a “useless” holiday in a conversation with Iowa voters, NBC News reports.Less than two months ago, however, he posted a video on social media celebrating the day.
Republicans want to raise voting age because young people are increasingly realizing that Republicans are authoritarian bigots.
Sure. Let’s also prevent people from voting for the last 25 years of their life unless they serve in the military. /s
I'd love to know too, cause I'm actually for lowering it. If there are 15 year Olds working jobs at fast food restaurants or wherever, they should either a) be able to vote, or b) not have income tax taken out. No taxation without representation.
Even ten years olds know you don't take babies from their mothers at the boarder. Let them vote.
We already had unpassable tests used to disenfranchise people for a long time. I wonder if you don't know about those or just agree with how they were used.
The most ignorant and racist people I know are all over 25, why would you only want it for those under 26?
No matter what political affiliation you have, I would wager that the current mess was not created by 18 year olds voting but older people. So if you want to be ‘fair’ and ‘reasonable’, hoe about we put restrictions on older voters on a sliding and increasingly more difficult scale?
18 - 25 : your good to go 25 - 40 : you need some civics tests 40 - 60 : civic + psycholigical testing 60 - 70 : civics + psychological + dementia testing 70+ : you no longer get to vote as your time has past and consequences are no longer your concern yet can harm upcoming generations
If you want limitations and testing, this is a fair proposal. I guess you would logically have to agree with this, yes?
