I can't speak about plastic straws but when it comes to foreign citizens voting, I am for it in at least limited capacity. Here ins Finland (I am a permanent resident, not a citizen), I am able to vote at the local level meaning, the city council level. The normal National parties are represented in this. What this means is that I am able to be a part of the community with limited scope and am therefore more willing to take an interest in the things that concern it. If I start to learn, this will of course mean that I will have to at least begin to take an interest at other levels of government also. The problem with many is that they want the economic benefits of foreigners coming into their country, but they don't want those same people to have any power. Of course for the most part anyway, the right to vote doesn't mean voting takes place (I think in the last election in the US and with all the publicity, only a little over 50% that could, did) nor does it mean that much changes even if it does.

What you said is okay but what you don't see here in California they are allowing people with no legal status to vote on these things. They don't have any form of resident status. We have state senators admitting that people in his own family are committing identity fraud to work. This is the problem with what they are doing it make no sense. They are trying to give them some control over where they live without giving them any rights to live here. It is a lie and trick. They want them to feel like they have some power so they come and work at under the table jobs or in sweat shop making clothes or in fields picking fruits and veggies for way less wages. They tell them it is a better life than they have at home and we put their kids in our schools shine the light on the fact that they will have a better life. It is a very sad thing to see that illegal who works harder than most people around here but has less cause the democrats have lied to them and tricked them to come live in this country with no legal status. But also the Republican allow it cause they love that cheap labor. That is why I can still go to my store and buy fresh fruits and veggies so cheap. If this ever ends it will be messy poor people won't like the cost of food if we have to start paying the workers real wages.
