How about we just prosecute vote rigging so that wackjobs with a percent of a percent of the population's vote don't get to make policy

its fun seeing how the culture shifted how it did

Or even propose policy

democracy without qualified-only voting is a botched democracy

RIGHTS FOR ALL PEOPLE, BTFO CHRISTIANS!
YOUR RIGHTS ARE EVIL SATANISTS, FUCK YOU!

but you also cant have that because its antithetical to principles

The united states isn't really a democracy
Couldn't say about Britain, but you could fix the US voting system overnight by outlawing lobbying

every person has a voice, and we cant pick and choose who to listen to

and fuck if i would give government power over the method of choosing

sometimes you need the voices that are clueless and stupid sounding to 90% of the people

it gets messy when individual uniquity gets fucky withy

by all means id like it if people that arent literally retarded are the only ones that can vote

but implementing that defeats the purpose

We do need a basic voting registration law just to prevent vote rigging

correct

Better than what exists now

One day she might be able to vote

also, why would we think the 'learned' people whatever that means, represent what would be good for most people

it just promotes tampering and excluding people from learning

Because education used to be part and parcel with moral standards

i still am amazed by how for US elections you just show up and vote, no ID whatsoever required

USED to be

and then its just might as well be a totalitarian state with like 10 people calling shit

@Sectator Pragmaticam Lex yea it's stupid

is there *any* other country on earth that's this naive about voting?

You show up and vote as many times as you want

in the UK we get sent a paper

one of the things though is that because they have a registration, they also know who you voted for

and that can be a little sketchy

even in backwater destitute south american pissholes we gotta show ID to vote

exactly why the US doesnt want gun registry

ah that would be different then yes

if you just show proof of ID

rather than government sending out a thing directly to people each time

works for me

unless it's done exceptionally poorly, voter ID only shows if you voted or not

but how will i win my district if i dont have my 500ghosts voting for me?

Also forcing people to need ids to exercise a right outlined in the constitution is the problem

ghosts have a voice too!
