Compulsory voting
For a healthy and fully functional democracy, all citizens need to be engaged in the electoral process. Voting is already a privilege in our democracy, but it should also be a legal requirement. This is the case in a country like Australia, so why not in the U.S. as well?
Why is this important?
A full 46.9% of eligible voters in this country opted out of casting their vote in our most recent presidential election. This is a direct threat to our democracy.
