No I don’t believe votes were changed in Dominion machines and other conspiracy theories. But I 100% believe votes were collected from people who had no interest in voting, would have never voted, and only voted because they were mailed a ballot they would have never requested. And in most cases, they were Biden votes from liberal cities and registered Democrats.

Not sure how anyone can argue that this didn’t happen. I give Democrats credit for being crafty enough to see this opportunity, seize upon it and get votes from voters they would have never had in a normal non Covid year. They saw opportunity to expand voting and used Covid as an excuse to push mail voting, which was always a goal of theirs. They know a certain segment of the population is too uncaring or lazy to show up and vote and wouldn’t request a mail in ballot. But send it to them automatically and have a Dem operative offer to show up and collect it, they may fill out it. And they executed it to a level high enough to tip the election in battleground states. Take this away and Trump won these same states in larger margins than 2016.

Unfortunately we are all now paying for it with what it did to our economy.
You can just say black people instead of coding it Boz, everyone knows what you meant. Biden certainly hasn’t helped but I’d argue keeping interest rates artificially low for at least five years longer than they should have been created a caricature in assets of the economy that was on the ground bubble that was inevitably going to pop whenever the artificially cheap money gift stopped.

Oh, I get it. It's not subtle.

You want a series of qualifiers to vote. Make it to the polling station. Get a car to make it to the polling station. Lug your children to the polling station. Pay a babysitter to make it to the polling station. Buy car insurance to make it to the polling station. Don't have a national voting holiday, thus forcing poor people to work the day of the voting. Limit voting to as few days as possible, so lower income people can't plan to vote when most convenient, that is, least expensive.

They're all just socioeconomic bars to leap through. It's ridiculous that an alleged democracy with the technology and wherewithal to have everybody vote goes out of its way to have voting cost something, which is what this boils down to.

Cars cost. Babysitters cost. Car insurance costs. Taking time off from work costs. And as percentages of income, they cost lower income people a lot more proportionally.

Now, here's the funny thing that points out rightwing hypocrisy. Far right folks are fine with voting costing something for lower income people.

Imagine if voting were mandatory, which is patriotic and honorable and civic duty and all that. And you got fined $500 if you didn't vote. So the poor would be under duress, just like they are when voting now. But what would the effect be? Poor people would vote, overall participation would go up, and the only people blowing off voting would be the wealthy.

And that's why we'll never see mandatory voting.
RED I like you and will never understand how someone like you who came from an underdeveloped area can be a liberal. I assume you think others can’t become successful like you did. Or Sandusky fucked you at PSU as a kid. I’ll assume the former. Mcap, no clue why he’s such an anal asshole that cares where anyone posts on this shit forum.

No where did I say niggers in my post, but I’ll say it now because it’s a word I still use. Like others use words as insults on here. Why is nigger different than homo, fag, tonsil jockey, trouser grazing, gerbil killer etc.

I’m laughing at RED’s thoughts of requiring everyone to vote or face a fine. Of course it’s a liberal dream requiring the homeless and others for don’t give a damn to vote or face a fine. The same people who sell drugs, loot and don’t pay taxes because it’s “illegal”. There is not a person in America that wants or cares to vote that can’t. Anyone thinking otherwise is a moron. RED bringing up excuses only feeds into the liberal beliefs that blacks are lessor humans without cars, work menial jobs 12 hours a day, and have kids without fathers sucking on both tits.

I could go on all day but this debate shows liberals have nothing left in policies, only the hope of finding new voters to try and keep the Democratic Party as a major party in America.

Honestly it’s sad thinking someone like you RED feels this way. Perhaps you can give your picks away to poor communities in America with the expansion of legalized gambling and change the “wealth gap” in America. But then again, the niggers don’t have cell phones or access to internet in your vision of America.
