What amendment outlawed the use of poll taxes as a requirement for voting?
Oh, dude, that would be the 24th Amendment. It was like, passed in 1964 to ban those sneaky poll taxes that were trying to stop people from voting. So yeah, no more paying to vote, because that's just not cool.

What arguments might you use to counter Thoreaus objections to the idea of a standing government?
It could be argued that Thoreauâ??s concept of a standing government should only be there as a consequence of the people allowing it to exist presupposes that all â??the peopleâ?? are comprised of those only capable of good intentions, whereas the government is not. Yet, we have seen the actions of some that can only be viewed as evil. If these bullies possess the personal power to push thru their evil intentions, are those of us lacking this ability not at the mercy of these efforts without a standing government to stop it?
What is less government?
less government is what conservatives are always talking about. conservatives blame the liberals for big government. what does big government means to a conservative? I think the problem is that conservatives don't want to pay any taxes. Just like when i grew up in my hometown, we had white people living in one side of town and hispanic in the other side of town. when a hispanic won the mayor position he found that the white people were not paying taxes at all. but when the new mayor made them pay taxes, most of them move out of town. i think you call those conservatives, right! If i earned 250,000 dollars a year, I wouldn't mind paying the tax. even yet, if the minimum wage was raised to 12.00 an hour, i wouldn't mine paying the tax and the rich not pay theirs. just don't raise the prize of the commodities just because a truck broke down cause there is when food stamps jump in.
