Women's suffrage note "From the Mrs." Good fem site.

My comment:
"Great note. You might have noted that indoor running water and the washing machine are two civilizing advances that have freed more women, in real time, than any amendments. And the Swiss women who did NOT vote for so many years weren't suffering SO much.

But I'm glad women vote; I'm glad Blacks & Indians (Native Americans) can vote -- but I wish it was only property owners.

Here's an idea for a gov't program: loan 18 year olds some 200 000 to buy property in the US, with interest deferred as long as they go to school/ college. And their loan repayments equal to their income tax liability -- to be a 100% tax credit (pay back the gov't loan instead of income tax).

Your thoughts? (came here from Dean)"
