Ve haf vays of making you vote. . .



I agree it's important to encourage people to vote, but do we really need the cost and expense of setting up a government office enforcing a fine if you don't? And if people are truly disinterested, is that so immoral that we want to fine them? Do we really want them voting anyway, if they are unaware of the issues and people involved? I'd argue a disinformed vote is actually worse than no vote at all.
