‘Very real risk’ US democracy won’t exist in a decade, says Ocasio-Cortez

She is right in a way. But it wont take close to ten years. Within a few short years we will not have the type of democracy that leftists consider a democracy. Instead we will have a much closer version to what the founders first envisioned . The time of stamping out corruption has finally come.

The Founders set up the 'Democracy' for 'Property Holders'.
Now, just about anyone can Vote. 'Worker Drones', 'Women', 'Stupid People'.

So, who should be able to Vote? Just the 'Shareholding Class'? The Ones that Control the Means of Production?

Much of the Constitution is set up to protect the wealthy from the majority of the people.

I believe it is set up along the lines of a Corporation.
Management (the Government) is beholden to the Shareholders (Wealthy People).

(ever notice how the CIA is referred to as 'The Company'?)

Oligarchy has the power. Trump and Hillary were representing the same class interests.

People on Welfare should lose voting rights. They have no skin in the game. People on SS should retain voting rights,....they worked their entire lives and contributed to society. When people refuse to be a contributing member of society they should be excluded from the decision making process.

It makes sense to have 'Stakeholders' involved in the Decision-Making.

The bolded is astounding.
 
I hope Republicans start voicing that. That they want people on welfare to lose their voting rights - and they also keep expanding to other groups they deem as not having "earned" a right to vote.

I hope they campaign on that, and get that message out to everyone.
