WHY DO THE CITIES GET TO DOMINATE EVERYTHING?!?! DOESN’T MY VOICE COUNT?!?!

They are really uncomfortable with ‘one man, one vote’, because at heart, they don’t really believe in representative democracy any more than they believe in liberty.

They believe liberty means THEY get to do what THEY want to do, and they get to prevent others from doing anything different. They believe democracy means their vote is the one that matters, and anyone who doesn’t agree with them probably shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

Aaaand that is why this last year you had Eric son of Eric and his merry crew start gabbing about “You should skin in the game and pay income taxes!!” or “You should be a property owner!” in order to have the right to vote.

In other words, they wanted us to go back to ancient Sparta and have the handful of citizens and teeming hordes of helots…
