SFDB Quote Of The Day

                                         Steve Marcus/Reuters/File
The three sacred entitlement cows in the room that no politician wants to poke are Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. A blinding statement of the obvious is that we are never going to get our financial house in order until these sacred entitlement cows are not only poked, but slaughtered. Until the slaughter is over, everything else is just taxation window dressing

[...]

Let’s also stop the insanity by suspending the right to vote of any American who is on welfare. Once they get off welfare and are self-sustaining, they get their right to vote restored. No American on welfare should have the right to vote for tax increases on those Americans who are working and paying taxes to support them. That’s insane.

-Ted Nugent, Republican, columnist for the Washington Times, 12/3/2012

What Americans on corporate welfare, Teddy? You have a similar prescription for governing how their right to vote, too?

What's truly insane is subjecting Americans' right to vote to economic circumstances.
