  1. NOT !!

    Voting is a right.  Rights are not mandatory.

    What are you gonna do? Maybe send in the national guard to round everybody up, load em into school busses and dump them into barbed wire enclosures at the polling places and hold em at gunpoint until they vote?

    Like what'll be the penalty if I refuse to legitimize this farce?  If it's a $thousand fine, I'll write a check.  Or I'll sell my ballot to someone who gives a flying fig.

    I guess some peoples' lives will be positively or negatively affected if Obama or McCain actually wins.  But my life will get worse one way or the other.  I see no change and little prospect for change unless I suddenly become super-rich.  Let those who think it matters step up and "make the difference."

    I  voted in the '72 election.  The one Nixin made a mockery of, and the process hasn't changed.  The results haven't changed.  Nothing has changed.  Well it has, we seem to be headed down the path of fascism faster.


  2. no. the biggest reason is that there are alot of people that should not be voting. i am a paramedic in a ghetto, so i see drug addicts, gang members, and low lifes in general every day. they should not vote for any thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. absolutely not most people dont pay any attention to politics and we dont want them voting.

  4. It is the duty of every citizen to vote .

  5. No, it shouldn't. Everyone has the right, and duty to vote. However, abstaining is also a right. Congresspersons also abstain from voting, as do nations at the United Nations.

  6. It should not be mandatory.  The idea of making it mandatory violates the principle of free choice (and the freedom to not make a choice), and the right to privacy (which includes the right to be left alone).
