My college professor once said that young people are so "dumb" that the government should raise the voting age to 40 because young people and even 'poor people" don't turnout in midterm elections.
College professor of what subject? If it's anything in the humanities that's an unbelievably odious and ignorant sentiment. If it's not in the humanities that's...still an unbelievably odious and ignorant sentiment, but potentially less directly damaging to the minds of the people they were teaching.
He was a history professor. He said that America can't afford "dumb young fools" and idiotic demographic groups that are lazy to show up in off-years. Crazy, foolish guy.
