Yet, you advocate not letting them vote?
When did I ever do that? I think you need to start paying closer attention to who is posting what...

Hey, yeah... funny thing huh. The people who have to take a test and earn the right to vote invariably end up being the most well-informed voters. Funny thing, that.

I will say that in my experience, those "border hopping aliens" are better citizens than almost all of the natural born Americans when it comes to voting. Well, the ones who came here through legal channels anyway.

Since one of the principles this country was founded on was the notion that taxation without representation was tyranny, then those who support the notion that "stupid" people shouldn't be allowed to vote must obviously also believe that "stupid" people should not have to pay taxes (be they local, state, or federal; income, sales, property or estate). After all, to force people to pay taxes without allowing them to vote would be anathema to a representative government. It would be tyrannical. It would be un-American. Quite frankly, it would be stupid. At least, IMHO.
I wish this happened for real. If I had to chose between having the right to vote ergo jury duty and such, or no taxes. I would fail every I.Q. test on purpose.
