Hear here! Mostly that bolded part. It's going to be a LOT more difficult on average for a Democrat to vote in 2022 than for a Republican.
How do you figure that? Laws like the one recently enacted in Georgia apply to everyone. Do you think Dems are particularly susceptible to dehydration or something?
Here's a simple test to see if you have the slightest clue.
I. Which group of voters is more likely to want to drink water while they wait?
. . . A. Those waiting in short lines.
. . . B. Those waiting in long lines.
II. Which party, when in power, likes to under-equip voting stations in precincts likely to vote for the other Party?
. . . A. QAnon.
. . . B. Other ____
. . . C. Don't know. Don't care.
This is an "open-book" exam. You may ask other TFTers for help.
@Derec — Although you attempted a response, I notice that you were unable to answer either question.
Remember, it's "open-book" and you're free to ask for help.
I've tried to make the quiz VERY easy for you. On question I, for example, you need only respond with 'A' or 'B'.
Meanwhile ...
Jeff Bezos really needs those $12,000 per year for this four kids. #Justice4Jeff
First:
Make up your mind! Your ilk likes to whine and whinge that Pocahontas wants to confiscate billions of dollars of hard-earned wealth from Jeff. Now you're whining that the same people want to give him an extra $12,000! Is this consistent? You don't want to give Jeff an extra dollar in tax relief, nor take away a dollar. You think that Ted Cruz, Steve Bannon and the rest of Trump's coven have stumbled on the PERFECT tax table, the tax table Yahweh would have come up with if he had a vote?
Second:
Please try to keep up! It's already been patiently explained that means-testing introduces unnecessary costs and inequities. Uncle Sam can simply give with one hand (an extra exemption box to click) and take back with the other hand (higher rates in the tax table). Presto: No means-testing, no welfare "cliffs", Bezos doesn't net that $12,000 of so much concern to you.
(About 95% of right-wingers will make a pointless whinge at this point: "Nanner nanner, you said it yourself. Sam gives with one hand and takes with the other. That's what we're trying to pound into numskull libtard brains." Let's see if YOU can rise above that rant. Better yet, write a brief essay on why that right-wing meme would be stupid.)
@Derec — You have told us, over and over, that you have no children yourself and begrudge your tax dollars going to help other people's children. Perhaps that's why you resent the extra $12,000 for Bezos' kids (despite that Pocahontas wants millions back from Jeff in return!) The tax code isn't optimized for my benefit either. Do you understand that when debating public policy in a forum like this we want to focus on general benefit and not just our own tax?
BTW, since benefits to the well-to-do will be effectively canceled by higher taxes on the well-to-do, is it interesting that QOP is the Party that insists on means testing? Do you wonder why that is?
If you think you know the answer, write a brief 50-word essay on the topic. Suggested title: "Making voters resentful: Directing hatred at non-existent Welfare Mama elects Republicans."
