The good ole days when you had to be a white, land owning man to vote!

Well that gives me a thought - could I sell off single square inches of my backyard to people for like fifty cents so they'd be land owners and eligible to vote?

No, typically they refer to the land of having some productive capacity.

So maybe you could plant a field of poppies and give away square inches.
