Ariz. to trim voting if citizenship proof lacking

[Peikko 1,575]

That's a good point.. but who said the right to vote is cheap? & once it's installed...as pointed out by the Conciliator.. it's an easy process.

So you think it's a good way to spend tax dollars, fixing problems that do not exist? I do not, no matter how cheap it would be to run, spending the money on something not worth having is a waste. I do not like waste.

[Crashed~N2~Me 970]

I haven't reported it, that's very tolerant.

I don't like thinly veiled threats... be my guest. Report it.

[Peikko 1,575]

You don't own your own business do you.. it's rhetorical...coz you have no appreciation for risk management.

They used to say the world is flat. Are you a reincarnation?

Yes, actually he does. Risk management means only taking action on risks that are significant. Taking action on a non provable, negligible risk is wasteful and definitely not something a business would contemplate.

I didn't threaten you I said it wasn't clever, it's not.

Why do we have regulation?

Risk is a subjective variable & you're incorrect... Risk Management is anticipating risk.

The gov't is not a business. nor is it set up to run like one.

The fact that you consider good risk management to be spending money that we don't have, on a risk that doesn't actually exist, makes me very glad that you do not run the business I work for.

I am not wrong. The assessment of risk is an exercise to decide how big a 'threat' there is, and therefore whether it's one that requires action or not. Business wouldn't work very efficiently if they mitigated against all risks, I wouldn't want a risk assessment manager who used your risk assessment criteria, I would fire them.

They do. They want to spend money to fix problems that do not exist but they cry like little girls when money is spent to address issues that actually exist. God forbid there's ever a return for the funds spent. It must all go to waste so that they can then turn around and complain about all that money being wasted. Remember how they created these huge deficits to then proclaim that our deficits are too big? It's how they operate.

That's why there are bean counters. If the cost to mitigate a risk outweighs the potential damage, the risk will not be addressed. Simple as that. Everyone knows this. Well, almost everyone.

Obviously there are some which deem the risk worth the expense. You both are mitigating their risk subjectively. I would not do business with either of you because you lack the ability to maintain objectivity & contemplate abstract thought.

You prove my point & the function of politics. Nothing else.

Not at all. I only show the uselessness of this particular brand of politics that the tea party fools pursue.

Exactly the opposite is true. Mitigating against an unprovable risk and suggesting that is worth the expense because you like the guys who put the idea forward is the subjective view.

Excuse me...I have to step away for a while & do some work...Something unexpected has come up.

See how that works?

You would not do business with me because your business wouldn't be in the black long enough to pay your bills.

Another neighbor you don't get along with? Go figure.

I just read the article. I have to ask, what proof is there that voter fraud is a big problem in this country? Where are the stats to back this up?

IMO, the GOP is trying to eliminate a base of people who won't vote for them.
