Ustwo had it right when he said that forcing people to vote would violate civil liberties. We are a free society, and a free to choose to vote or not. I sincerely wish more people took the time and effort to vote, but they should not be forced to vote.
Unfortuately, Ustwo was unable to make a good point without making a kneejerk "liberals" slam that has no place in this discussion.
