I can see the argument that when someone has committed a felony, you are taking them out of society as punishment. However once they’ve done their time and re-enter society, they have all the rights and privileges
Geez, connect this with the previous article on “pay to stay” debt, combine it with background searches for most jobs and debt …… how the heck does anyone come back from even a short sentence? If we’re making it unnecessarily difficult to reintegrate, how are we surprised when they fall?
If one is a citizen of a country the right to vote should be the same as the right to breathe air.
The only qualification should be citizenship.

That’s the neat part: You don’t.
It is incredibly difficult, bordering on impossible in some states.
So I can’t breathe air if I’m not a citizen? Guess I’ll die
Correct. Go breathe air in your own county. /S
One of my really unpopular opinions is that the voting age should be removed as well, but that’s for another post 😏
My unpopular opinion is that the average person is too stupid to be allowed to vote lol
Do suppose that’s how brexit happened
But everyone who disagrees with me is stupid as well so 🤭
