It just seems like a wrong path to go down for a modern democracy. I mean democracy is meant to be about what the people want, even if it may be unwise at times (which is also subjective, so it is difficult to judge).

I would be in favor of a certain IQ (if there's some accurate measure) for all voting, and land ownership for some. I honestly don't want to have decisions left up to the will of "the people" simply because many of "the people" are idiots. Generally, "the people" have no idea about anything, and are too easily swayed by shiny objects (in the form of political campaigning).
