A 19 year old being supported by their parents just doesn't understand

Or be a land owner?

Some type of life experience that deals with economics, taxes, etc

I hope you are right! :)

I agree 100%, this piss ant even made it as a member of Ontario legislature Sam Oosterhoff

We are on opposite spectrums of political parties but I'm glad we can agree that life experience should be a prerequisite to voting and most certainly before holding office. A 19 year old in office!? Ridiculous!
Love the meme--better than mine!

Couldn't agree more, when you still have to ask your mum how things work you can't be directing the masses

Yes I agree--ridiculous

If I don't own anything, what kind of a problem do I have with voting for a measure -- a tax, a law -- that takes somebody else's property and gives it to me? I have no stake in personal property ownership 'cause I don't have any.

You make a good point. This is a little of the subject but I used to have several rentals and it was ridiculous that I was the one who worked hard, earned enough money and built up my credit to be able to have these properties yet I had no rights. The tenants had all the rights. It practically takes an act of congress to evict someone for not paying rent for several months. Yet I still had to pay the mortgage and the taxes and property manager, etc. I no longer own rentals-lol.

Yes, exactly! You have reiterated my point (on my meme)--that until one has real life experience they have no business helping to decide who will make policies. I was thinking of Bernie supporters (they are forming their own tea party) when I made this meme and we all know he and his supporters are very much into redistribution of wealth.

Yep, and who wants to work hard and better themselves if whatever they earn just ends up in someone else's pocket. Not me!
