  • If voters were required to pass an intelligence test in order to vote then we would never have a democrat president.
    Democrats need the dumb....
    Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, and every dumb ass liberal.

    Some suggested question types for the exam...

    Also, based on DieHards suggestion, really retirees in general can not vote. They aren't contributing and just receive money

    Include welfare recipients to those not contributing anything and are just receiving money.

    Diehard already said that, you're just going in a circle.

  • The criteria will be liberal self-serving. college libs will say ya need college...etc.

    Lol..I guess you can say that.

    Listen to these Michigan products...

  • I was just going to make the "skin in the game" point. As in,

    you're on welfare, renting, and you get to vote to raise levies?

    Property tax - once you own your own home, by God, you shouldn't

    have to keep paying "rent" on it. That's more like "protection money - you keep

    paying to be allowed to keep your home you paid off"

    I have never understood this. Might as well say you are renting your property from the government. You get behind on those taxes, they will sure as shit come and take it.

  • As I stated earlier, just having a test be:

    who are your two Federal Senators?

    who is your representative in the US House of Representatives?

    That would probably eliminate 30-40 percent of voters

    To eliminate another 10-20 percent of voters

    what is the difference between debt and deficit?

  • I think the rest of the world should adopt a constitution exactly in structure

    like ours.

    So... I watched some of that.

    1) Jesus that guy is annoying

    2) Cutting together random encounters on the street can make any group look bad

    3) Why are some on here so against education? Do you really think profs are just brainwashing students to be liberal? Do you just listen to people like thus to explain college to you? Is it just a way to discredit any educated "elitist"?

    What was your college experience Bunker?

  • I'd imagine that the engineering department has a lot less left-wing indoctrination then some of the liberal arts or political science departments. Just a guess..

    Teacher, cashier, street poet, etc. unless you go on to start your own business related to your degree or become an entertainer.

    To be fair, Liberal Arts includes degrees that can result in "legitimate" jobs.

    How about, Liberal Arts - STEM degrees

  • I have an idea for the OP -

    Shut the fuck up and enjoy your own shitty PC vomit inducing monarchy.

    Here is one of those "on the street videos" filmed from my hometown. It makes Strongsville look like shit..

    Well when I went to college there were flyers all over the bulletin board pushing applications from recent graduates. The companies were corporations of various types but many of them specified any degree. I'm assuming that someone who puts the time and effort into graduating has a certain type of responsibility that would be valuable to a company. Especially opposed to 1 or 2 years dicking around in college which shows lack of same.

    I think things may be different in today's market and a more specified degree would be preferred.

    Well, those are liberal arts degrees.

    Get a STEM major and you'll have specific jobs to apply for

    (some more broad than others. As an ME, I can really apply to almost any engineering job. Also, finance/consulting places take engineers as well. It is much easier to teach an engineer/STEM major business then teach a business major math/quantitative skills/etc)

    I'm not an English major but did you really just write this sentence, read it, think "yeah that makes sense," and then post it??

    Holy fuck.

    Than not then, my apologies.

    It is easier to teach STEM majors business (business skills), than to teach non STEM majors quantitative skills....

    Was it really that hard to understand? Lol

    Outside of the then/than typo, it makes perfect sense to me. Maybe it involves college talk with the major phrasing.
