A policy that constricts the enfranchisement of the general public is anti-democratic.

If, every year, you introduce a set of laws that makes felons out of half your political opposition, you quickly create for yourself a one party monopoly.

Making felons out of your opposition through... deregulation and union busting? Huh?

Also felons should be able to vote, even when they're in prison. The fact that they can't is undemocratic.

Also felons should be able to vote, even when they’re in prison.

You're preaching to the choir. But you're also making my point.

Also, I'd hardly call the criminalization of LGBTQ communities, migrant communities, and women's health clinics a deregulatory policy.

Look at what I was replying to. It specifically mentioned union busting, deregulation, and nothing else.
