>Frankly, society would be a lot better if the childless couldn't vote; leave voting to people who have a stake in society's future!

Whoa now. Just because I am childless doesn’t mean I don’t care about future generations. I still have friends and family that do have children and I vote with that in mind.

Maybe idealism is dead and even the youth have been corrupted these days.
Hard to tell whether you are being sarcastic or not; just in case you aren't, it's trivial to confirm that few people vote in a game-theory optimal manner.
