Re: NMFS proposes to reduce the hake possession limit
I just want to get this straight. You think that unlimited millions of dollars being "donated" to political candidates is NOT the problem? The problem is people who engage in their Democratic duty as citizens in a Democracy by voting? Is that what you are saying? I think that's what you're saying. Soooooo...people shouldn't vote? They should vote for someone else? Not going to happen because no matter who runs the amount of money needed to compete is so huge that everyone has to play the fund raising game. As long as unlimited cash is flowing the entire system is corrupted.

No I'm saying people need to vote. But not the stupid ones that just vote to line their own pockets with entitlement programs. I think if you are on the dole you should be able to vote . Except people on social security they paid in |
Re: NMFS proposes to reduce the hake possession limit
I think you are saying people "on the dole" should NOT be allowed to vote. I'm not even going there.
America, for all the chest thumping we do about Freedom and Democracy, has a pathetic voter turn out. We love us some Constitutional Rights, baseball and apple pie but as a nation we are terrible at voting. Anything approaching 55% is considered a good turn out. Just over half of eligible voters. How lame is that? And then people complain about the government. Well, you get out what you put in. In my opinion, if you don't vote than you should STFU about anything related to gov't. |
Re: NMFS proposes to reduce the hake possession limit
this is the same old story over and over again.we march,no change...we vote,no change.we start groups,no change.sea bass is in good shape but cut the rec guys take.is been going on for years and years.my grandfather told me way back when they put the first size limit on fluke that once they did it they would keep right on taking.

It should be mandatory that everyone that the right to vote ''must'' vote.

Compulsory voting is fairly common in some western democracies. As much as I fear the general stupidity of the average American I think mandatory voting for every eligible voter could be a good thing. Make Election Day a national holiday so nobody has the excuse of having to work. As for not letting anyone "on the dole" vote, you mean anyone getting gov't assistance, right? So no welfare recipients, anyone getting food stamps, Medicaid, Medicare, social security, unemployment, disability, gov't student loans or tax credits (which might as well be counted as a handout) Who's left? |
