You are conflating naive and a barely functional human being.

If someone doesn't know what the electricity zaps and couldn't think two steps ahead then they definitely should be anywhere near a power circuits, operating a car or be allowed to vote.

EDIT: of course it should had been 'shouldn't be anywhere' but it's even better, so I leave it as is.



you've just excluded at least half of america from voting, however smart you think most people are... the reality is significantly worse


Can I now take it as confirmation from the two of you (justsomehnguy and micromacrofoot) that at least half of Americans who vote should not be allowed to vote?

If so, this may be the first time an important political question has been resolved without a light bulb turning on (figurative or otherwise).


Does the name R. Heinlein rings any bells?

Not what I would support it made that way...
