You guys took the bait.

Why do you always take the bait.

Except I'm not baiting.

Apparently money now equals political knowledge.

Money?

Anyone can own a home if I can at 23 (bought when I was 22).

All you have to be is semi smart about managing your money.
In today's news, PSU doesn't understand how real estate markets differ.

Houses in my area *start* at $750,000. $450,00 if you want a studio or 1-bedroom apartment.

Sorry. Nope. I'm renting.

Guess I can't vote.
because there are many, many more job opportunities near you.
Except not really.

You honestly think those living costs don't offset?

Nope. People who work here commute in from the cheaper surrounding areas. People who live here are either wealthy retirees or small, rich, Asian families who were making a shit-ton of money overseas. If you live here, you don't work here. If you work here, you don't live here.

Because there are not people that are older than you and homeless, right?

So I guess that athletes can't vote because they spend money in retarded ways and end up going bankrupt after a year

Yep. You want to know why they are homeless? Because they are fracking retarded. If you're 30 years old+ and you're homeless, you fracked up somewhere and its your fault. #SorryNotSorry

Athletes go bankrupt after a year?
Because the 2008 financial decline never happened, right?

http://www.munknee.com/78-of-nfl-players-go-bankrupt-within-5-years/

Its 2014. Sorry.
Because everything returns to normal in 1 or 2 years? Sorry, that's not how things work

Funny how you think property owners know more yet you absolutely know nothing about the Constitution, economics, or the financial system. I'd fracking rather support Challenger and Icy over you anyday
its been 6 years.

I know most everything about the constitution. I just disagree with some of it.

And please don't talk about economics or financial situations when your mommy still pays your phone and internet bill.

6 years is literally nothing in the grand scope of things. The unemployment rate is STILL 11.8% and employment opportunities are STILL scarce

If you know almost everything about the Constitution then you would know your suggestion is in direct violation. If you're going to ignore that right then might as well continue to let the NSA violate the 4th Amendment and violate the law where they can only conduct intelligence on people outside of the country; might as well allow the FCC reject net neutrality; might as well not give people the right to trial, attorney, and a jury. Might as well just get rid of the Constitution altogether

As if you know anything about my personal life. I pay for my phone bill and I pay my car payment/insurance. I also do chores around the house which pays for my internet. Really, continue to dig that hole deeper

I'm the one digging a hole? LOL whoa! Don't go overboard with those chores man. You might hurt yourself.

Yes it is literally that easy to find a job. Especially after 6 months. I worked at fucking McDonalds when I was 17 and within 6 months was an assistant manager making 25 an hour. Its not hard to move up within a company and its not hard to get a job.

Yes I know its a direct violation of the constitution. Like I said, I don't care.
Yes, we should keep the NSA. They aren't infringing on shit.

Why should an 18 year old living off his parents hold the same amount of votes as someone who pays top dollar in taxes?
Quick question here. If the recent poll is anything to go by, I am the highest educated person on here. Yet, I'm still continuing my education by aspring a second, specialized Master's degree, which my parents are paying for. I am a full-time student and won't be looking for a job just yet. Explain to me why I, despite having more knowledge of law, economics and politics than most people with a place of their own, should not be allowed to vote for the mere reason that I haven't bought a house of my own yet.

Must be nice to have rich parents.

Especially parents who would let you pursue 2 masters degrees, while paying, and dedicate that kind of time.

But for real, you're lucky. Enjoy it.

You are digging a hole by making wild accusations and I prove you wrong. So continue with those accusations

No it's literally not that easy to find a job. Oh, you worked at McDonalds and used to be a manager? Cool story. This is 2014, not the 1990s or 1980s. Times have changed and in order to get any promotion, or job in general, a person needs a college degree. Working at McDonalds alone won't even afford a place to rent because people who work full time are at or slightly above the poverty line. And considering you're against the idea of raising wages because it raises the price of products, wage increases won't help

NSA is infringing. They've mass-collected information without warrants or probable cause for years now. That's a direct violation of the 4th Amendment. The NSA is also just an intelligence agency and have no policing powers so they can't charge and imprison people, like they're doing right now. NSA's job is also to conduct intelligence on matters outside of the nation, not inside like they're doing by collecting grandma's phone records

PSU Logic:

1: Dude, getting a job is easy just work at McD's.
2: No, minimum wage people shouldn't get a raise. Nobody needs $15/hr to flip burgers.

Can't have it both ways, duder.
