It is such nonsense that it is some infringement on your rights. You are forced to pay taxes, do jury duty, not to mention all sorts of rules and regulations that we are forced to deal with everyday. It is more democratic if everyone votes.
your not helping I have an assignment about why its good but I keep finding that its bad :''''(
"Compulsory voting" is like compulsory volunteering.
Calling compulsary voting 'radical' is alarming to me as an Australian.
The right to vote means that people have the freedom NOT to vote if they so choose. Compulsory voting is an infringement on a person's fundamental right. Forcing people to vote and calling it freedom is like saying people have the freedom to pay taxes.
Metric Imperialist I know this is 4 years old but this really helps with a debate paper😂
Dont forget that the main reason for governments doing this is due to the fact that if you dont they cant get their mitts through income tax rtc
It works very well in Australia.
it should be compulsory for everyone
