      Yeah, maybe instead he should be arguing for people without kids to have fewer votes. Maybe, just picking a number at random here, like they should get 3/5 of a vote.

        The funny part is that when people jokingly suggest certain people should get 3/5 of a vote, they’re overlooking an important detail that makes it even worse: slaves never got 3/5 of a vote; their owners got the extra votes.

        Maybe each kid should only be worth 3/5ths a vote with all these child labor laws going out the window.
