I am not for denying anyone the right to vote, but sometimes I do wonder about the wisdom of some of the people who do vote. A story posted in The Blaze<\/a>\u00a0yesterday underscored that thought.<\/p>\n

According to The Blaze:<\/p>\n

Responding to a local rumor, people are standing in line for hours, turning over valuable personal information and expecting to receive a government handout in New York City.\u00a0If this sounds familiar, it is. Back in the fall of 2009, thousands of people stood in line in Michigan expecting to be given some Obama money. It never arrived.<\/strong><\/p>\n

My concern here is the concept of “Obama money.” Where do these people think Obama money comes from? Is it simply manufactured out of thin air? Does it grow on trees?<\/p>\n

The story goes on to explain that E & M Multi-Services, a tax preparation service that operates out of the back of a \u201cdollar store\u201d in the Fordham section of the Bronx, is collecting copies of Social Security cards, state ID cards<\/a> and in exchange people are given a debit card from First California Bank<\/a>. Unfortunately, the debit cards<\/a> do not have money on them from President Obama or any bank. Surprised?<\/p>\n

The article states the obvious:<\/p>\n

Considering the massive problem of identity theft, handing over your Social Security card, state issued ID cards and other personal information to a business housed in the back of a dollar store is probably not a good idea.<\/strong><\/p>\n

And these people vote?<\/p>\n
