Like you must own property to vote? Or have some skin in the game, prove you care enough about your own existence by earning your way, kind of stuff? (ope, this country doesn't care about property rights anymore, I forgot. Or about having a vested self interest either.)

A test of just how dependent these EBT addicts are? Hmm. It looks like they got what they wanted.

I agree. I was even a little stiffer regarding voting rights a few months ago, suggesting a shareholder approach to voting. I was voted down, perhaps correctly so.

That's what's being tested... and that's the goal.

Certain things should nullify a persons right to vote. I say you have to go at least 6 months before an election without using an EBT card or you can't vote.

I wonder if it was a routine back up or if this was a test. What if EBT cards quit working for a week? a month? Drastic measures would be needed to restore and maintain order.

EBT recipients in LA threaten riots after card outage? Another item for AS - Now Non-Fiction. I have to chuckle and shake my head. Otherwise I might cry. And those people cancelled out our votes, with their EBT cards and their "free" Obama phones?! Sigh.
