I think we should bring back the "3/5 person" rule.

Dumpy Dooby · 05-23-2007, 05:39 AM

During slavery (in the US) a black person counted as 3/5 of a person in regards to population when figuring out how many delegates the south would get in the House of Representatives.

I think we should bring the 3/5 rule back, but apply it to people over the age of 55.

This is mainly because once you reach that age you aren't a whole person. You start to shrink, can no longer reproduce (poorly at best) and the mind becomes mushy and the ability to think slowly fades (evidenced by voting republican and becoming more religious).

What good are old people? They are no longer productive in the workplace, drive under the speed limit in the slow lane and yearn for a better time (when they were younger) that never really existed.

It is time to end the Nazi regime of the old and senile that are running this country into the ground.

Just imagine the tax cuts we could get if we got rid of their prescription drug bill. They would just die off like they should, social security would be fixed, medicare costs would go down, all of the CEO's and board of directors would be gone allowing for people like us to get over paid for not doing much.

Send the old people to mexico. Its warm in the winter anyway.

Teddy Roosevelt, JFK, and Clinton have been our youngest presidents, and they seem to be pretty much adored by most of the country. I think you might be on to something here.

I actually somewhat agree with you. Dare I say completely?

A forced exchange program. Each illegal that gets caught can stay, and instead the US sends an old person
