Any abled bodied leech receiving welfare should not have the right to vote.
Then call your representatives and tell them to put that bill forward, I am sure House Republicans will try and pass any idiotic idea that comes their way as long as it disenfranchises others.
Maybe you should take a look at the Constitution so cherished by you conservatives for the answer...
....................Welll......................... ....... now that you mention it-
1. only property owners were allowed to vote
2. women were not allowed to vote
3. blacks were not allowed to vote
Are you suggesting that we go back to the "good old days"? I think, given that I am more "progressive" than you, that we should just have property owners vote. These property owners, of course, could be blacks or women.

Then I must be really progressive cause I think all three are wrong and the Supreme Court agrees with me.

The original Constitution didn't prevent anyone from voting.
..If the poor's vote gets bigger, we will for sure be a socialistic country and will be in BIG TROUBLE!
Classic. What's dumber? The fact that you believe in such a thing, or the fact that you believe there are many people who don't pay taxes?
What kind of moron thinks that there are many people who are unscathed by sales taxes, property taxes, payroll taxes, usage fees, registration fees, mandatory prison sentences for breaking moral laws?
My guess is the people you visit are on Medicare. In 2010 seniors voted almost 60% for Republicans. Republicans ran to the left of Democrats promising more Medicare spending. Republicans were also Responsible for plan D. I guess maybe you should thank Republicans for all the welfare-Medicare spending that keeps you employed.
Don't get me started on Medicare. It's going bankrupt and yet people paid into it!
Then why not do what they do and enjoy that lavish lifestyle?
I did while I put myself through school. I paid taxes for years and used some of it to be the first one in my family to go to college and get a degree. My father dropped out of junior high.
I have a learning disability and struggled terribly to get where I am at today.
I never voted when I was on government assistance. I didn't feel I had the right!
I would love to see my tax dollars help someone better themselves...but to see them go nowhere and just expect the government to be their answer is just wrong IMO!
I know some can't help it...I don't mean the very ill, but I don't think obesity (that is out of control) and now un-hirable is a very good excuse!

I seriously don't think we've had any worse than Obama!

Then you must not remember the Bush years.
