You question my "Americaness" yet you come up with that?!? It's bewildering. America is a federation of States. Each state is adamantly protective of their independence, particularly the red states, which for decades have fought the federal government's intervention in state affairs. The antiquated voting system in America is a result of states' so called sovereignty. It's not new and wasn't created to dump Trump. The electoral system is also part of that antiquated voting process and I am glad you and I can agree on something, that the US voting system ought to evolve to at least 20th century standards. Elections should be on a one person, one vote and standardized across the nation, as a reflexion of our national unity. Everyone voting should present a state ID (I'm all for national ID!) which should be free to anyone asking for one. No one convicted of anything should lose their right to vote; it's an unalienable right. But people failing to update their address on their ID to prove their residence, ought to lose their right to vote. Voting should be mandatory as a sign of respect for the suffering of so many who ensured that right. Failure to do so should lead to a $100 fine. Anyone is free to vote blank. Of course, the next step, the 21st century step is to vote online. After all, we transact money online, there's no reason we couldn't come up with a secure system with multiple redundancies.
States' so called "sovereignty" shouldn't include election rules for a president that will preside over ALL states. Michigan's rules for administering elections shouldn't be different from that of Ohio if that same president is going to rule over Michigan and Ohio. There should be a national Election ID with photo for accurate identification. Why should the state be the ones issuing the ID? Election rules should be administered at the national level uniform across ALL states so it should be the federal government that issues a national Election ID. And uniform cut-off date and time for when mail-in ballots should be received to be eligible to be counted and guaranteed delivery standard that is different from regular mail to ensure all mail-in ballots are received in time for counting. There will be no more waiting for weeks, even months for final results. All results will be known by the day after election day. There will be no more delayed voting after election day due to not having an ID for voting. If you didn't have a proper ID for voting by election day, that is too bad. You lose your chance to vote. Voting really doesn't need to be mandatory. For those who decided not to vote, they forfeit their right to elect a leader of their choice. Then if that leader happens to instill policies not to their liking, then they have no choice but to live with it. If US is able to beef up its security to be secure enough. That would be the first hurdle. If hackers can break into US government systems like the US Treasury, US is not ready for online voting. Transacting money is not the same as electing a leader that can force you to do things that will affect all aspects of your life regardless of your opinion like forcing you to pay a 100% financial transaction tax.
Unfair, unfair, unfair ...except of course Fox, OAN, NewsMax, Drudge, Daily Caller, Breitbart - did I miss any other "fair" news media?
Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep state hahaha. When calls for evidence are made the deep state card is of course pulled reflexively.
Bezos wont pay any tax cos hes gonna spend all his money for Mars relocation. No profit no tax. Once republicans cut democrats throats, china takes taiwan and then whole asia, russia subdues europe entirely, UK (um.. there is no UK anymore just a puff in the air, moving on).. then Bezos would walk non-chalantly to his rocket with Musk and other billionaires and off they go.. and i suppose that what was predicted in the bible as "rapture"..
You guys are funny, you think those with wealth been waiting for something to happen? LOL I been planning "what it's" since 1999, people who don't have wealth always have opinions, those who have wealth never worried. Spend more time learning charting than worrying what you might not have. Too old and slow to sit in undies, all automation. This time next year hugely reduced scalping/day trading as options show less risk.
