>his country doesn't have mandatory voting
Why? Are you afraid your country is too full of retarded people or something?
>>57666753
Yes.
>>57666753
It IS full of retarded people, that's why we have mandatory voting.

chasing jap pussy?
>>57667752
Yup, on vacation
You do realize that the average schmuck is a fucking idiot right?
Why would you want uninformed people making decisions that affect millions?
Especially in a country like America?
There needs to be a test to vote, smdh

Maybe in your country. In Australia we are all a highly educated and politically concious people

>Why would you want uninformed people making decisions that affect millions?
millions of uninformed people taking a binary decision
that's more predictable and controllable than it sounds
the important votes are the ones of the people who don't have ideals
why vote for collective stupidity and the same corrupted cunts,best form of government is a strict and ruthless dictator who would make heads roll as much as possible,i do not care what his or hers political agenda,as long its bloodthisty and insane

Elections have a 75-80% turn-up so it's not really necessary in NL.
What would be the fucking point of mandatory voting? The electorates pick the president with no regard to what the common man thinks.
>>57668254
I looked it up, you're only at 71%

>Are you afraid your country is too full of retarded people or something?
No, I know that for a fact
Brazil does have a mandatory voting law. And I guarantee you its doing more harm to this country than it's not. And this law favors socialists. Fuck you Obama. And fuck you Straya.

Actually I'm in favor of a "voting permit" that would allow only people who know the bare minimum about politics to vote.
I'm not talking about giving that right to specialists only, but being able to tell the difference between a presidential and a general election for example would be a good thing. Too many people vote even though they are total morons.

I bet all those abos and bogans really give a shit about the PM. You're right, straya, how could I have been so blind?
What could actually be useful would be voting on major issues/laws instead of leaving it up to a bunch of "representatives" you elect who just do what ever special interest groups want them to do once they get in office.
That would be a form of actual democracy I guess.
Can't have that.
>>57668523
Not a bad idea desu, people should have to prove they actually know what the fuck they are voting for aswell. Too many dumbasses just vote for whatever their parents vote for, and also people who are so bluepilled they still think left = automatically good and right = automatically evil
