I was serious with my response to the meritocracy idea. It's been a big problem in this country and it's a problem that seems to be getting worse. It's very difficult to get the majority of people in this country to vote at all.

If we were to consider such an idea, personally, I think mothers should get to cast the most votes. We're the ones who provide the government with the cannon fodder they're so fond of putting in harm's way. I think we should be the ones who decide which military adventures are worthy of our children's lives and which ones aren't.
