[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure. [b]You want my 15 year old, who along with all her friends, thinks money comes from “the government” to vote locally.[/b] On things like bond referendums. Or people who got here 3 months ago, haven’t paid a penny in taxes yet but are already net consumers of public benefits, to elect politicians who will give them more free stuff. Yeah great. Great plan. JFC, we’re doomed. [/quote] I don't agree, but old people in that case would be a much bigger concern. Many of them are basically single-issue voters focused on how much the government will boost their SS and Medicare handouts next year.[/quote] Handouts? You mean getting their return on their income taken out during their working years for SS in their retirement now???[/quote]
