Reply #68: women and minority VOTING rights were not incremental

[Land Shark]

you either get to vote the same as everyone else, or you don't, period. Some states granted the right to vote before we had it federally but the point still stands that voting comes in units of 100% or nothing.

the idea that incremental progress can't be achieved comes from several things.

1. computer security: given the high stakes of election (world's richest country) we can fully expect that if a single door is left unlocked, the "burglars" will find it. Thus, incremental progress on security is an illusion.

2. Computer security: Security people will say that there's no such thing as anything like absolute security, we can only increase the cost to penetrate a system to be quite high. But this restricts those who can beat the elections systems just to nation states, large corporations and CIA/KGB types, which are PRECISELY the ones i'm worried about from the get go. Here again, no incremental proess
