Restricting voting in any way shape or form creates avenues of control.
No one chose to be born in America and you cant exactly up and leave. If you believe in inalienable rights you are doing this country a service by participating in society.
I agree. Mandatory voting, like some countries have, is probably the best option.
I was pointing out that there’s humans tend to assign value to things based on external factors, such as the value others assign. Freely given things are valued less than things that have a cost. But looking at voting as civic duty, and making it mandatory, is better than assigning a cost to it (such as earning it through service), which is only ever a hack.
