"People don't like to be meddled with. We tell them what to do, what to think, don't run, don't walk. We're in their homes and in their heads and we haven't the right. We're meddlesome."

My shtick is brevity. (I might even be the best?)

Restrict the vote to landowners.

A lot of issues would evaporate.

Yeah, don't think so. More problems would arise and history has shown that.

I disagree. When you don't restrict the vote, democracy infects the system, and people stop voting for things that would help the country as a whole. I'm willing to listen to any examples if you have any.

If it makes you feel better, only the wishes of stock owners (magnates) really count anyway.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

Democracy infects by the laziness of the people, the lack of intelligence of the dullard, and the inability of knowing the difference between freedom and rights.

Voting is one thing in America that's equal; that's why the egalitarians flock around it so much. There's a tremendous backlash from The Left against The Constitution because it establishes liberty as the goal, not democracy. Public schools reflect this reevaluation. Rather than restricting democracy, get back control of education; everything else is downstream of there.
