    No. If you are 18 years old and have not been judged insane and are not a convicted felon who has not had his rights restored you have a right to vote regardless of what any other person might think.

    People vote Alan Turing down because he didn't give the answer that they wanted to hear, but he's right. Disenfranchising people because someone doesn't think they are looking hard enough for a job is an excessively severe course of action. I propose that we take them off of welfare if they refuse to go job hunting.

    You do realize that to get most welfare other than food you need to be actively searching for work
