Should people on welfare after a certain time have their voting right revoked?

[True-Boxing-Fan]

I think anyone without a 4-year degree shouldn't be allowed to vote.

And the typical republican thinks that the less educated the better when it comes to voting.

Can’t take right to vote or shouldn’t. Welfare needs to be limited in time. And then f you have a kid while on welfare it should be revoked

Welfare leechers don’t vote? Are you serious?

They vote, only if Democrats register them, and then drive them to the voting stations.

But, they rather be home, watching judge Judy, or some other silly tV show, filled with commercials for bail bondsmen, cheap fly by night auto insurance, etc. they don’t vote.

I am not talking about people with health issues. I am talking about normal people who are lazy bums, who simply enjoy the system and get paid to not do ****.

If someone is on welfare for example over 8 months or a year, because that is their way of life, they should have no right to vote.

Because their vote will be totally biased towards the party that will tax the rich more to keep paying their bum ass welfare. They don’t contribute to society nor pay taxes, so **** their vote.

What do you mean welfare? There is no program called welfare. I'm pretty sure the only way to get actual money is through Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). And as is in the name, it is temporary. There is a 60 month (five year) LIFETIME limit on it, and now one must find a job within 24 months (2 years). Also, TANF has extremely strict guidelines which include listing EVERYTHING one buys, and receipts to prove it.

Welfare refers to any program for the social welfare of the country. This includes education- pre-k, k-12 public schools, undergraduate college, and graduate college. It refers to assistance for things such as food, housing, heat, or a phone. It refers to youth soccer programs. It refers to public land for fishing and hunting. It refers to fixing roads.

There are strict limits on most types of assistance. For example, an able bodied adult without children can only receive SNAP (aka food stamps) for three months. Almost all forms of government assistance requires on to look for employment. I believe you have to apply at at least 5 different places every week or month. Also, most forms of assistance also require one to "work" it off at non-profits. It is either $10 an hour, or minimum wage. The only exceptions are for single parents with children. In those cases, the state would have to pay considerably more for childcare.

There is no single program called "welfare." That ended a long time ago.

Great idea. While at it, ban the millions of illegal Mexicans from voting. Let's see how the democrats feel about that one.

Illegal immigrants aren't allowed to vote and never have been. Only U.S. citizens can vote. That means people here on legal visas or green cards are also barred from voting. They always have been.

Really have you seen what our colleges are spewing out there days?

Give credit to ones that skip higher education to learn a trade. Boilermaker, Aircraft Mechanic, Pile-Driver Operator, Plumber, Pipefitter, or Steamfitter, Electrician, HVAC Technician, welder etc.

Wouldn't make much difference the percentage of Americans that are long term unemployed is just 0.74% according to figures in April 2018. Factor in how many of those have health issues and that electoral turnout at the last elections was about 60% you are probably talking about excluding 0.2-0.3% of the votes.

With 138,846,541 ballots counted in the 2016 elections that's just between 277,693-416,540 votes. That wouldn't of changed a close election like Bush/Gore, Gore would of still gotten more votes and still lost the election, lmao. Clearly where these votes are taken from matters more than how many they are as the Bush/Gore election showed.

And over 50% of Americans are on some kind of government assistance so are you talking about just allowing the wealthy vote? Isn't that what lobbying is for so the wealthy elite and corporate en****** can buy our politicians votes and influence?

When you're on welfare you should be treated like what you are; a very entry level employee of the government (although your only real "job" is to exist" and produce neglected offspring who will grow up to clog the prison system, they're paying you).

You should be required to take a drug test or stop receiving paychecks. You shouldn't have voting rights. You should be required to perform menial tasks within your modest capabilities.

Unfortunately being on welfare is a lot easier than working an entry level job. When you switch from being a welfare "hustla" to getting a minimum wage job in California there goes your free college money, 100% free health care with $0 copay and $0 deductible, etc.

They don't play around when it comes to punishing you for an act of right-wing extremism like having an income.

What do you actually think "welfare" is???

People too stupid to realize that there is no program called "welfare" shouldn't be allowed to vote.

Food assistance, housing vouchers, permanent $0 copay, $0 deductible health care. You can approach living completely for free depending on the state you live in and how much dignity you possess.

Why are you pretending not to know what welfare is home skillet? You think the fraud inspectors read your boxingscene posts?

That’s completely wrong. I consider myself center right on most issues. I want MORE education because there are too many stupid people allowed to vote. They tend to vote democratic as well.
