A BIG Heinlein BUMP!
I love his "coventry" concept for prisons...
As well, as you must SERVE in the Military to be able to Vote as in "Starship Troopers". Or the concept of local Judges on "The moon is a harsh mistress". BUMP.BUMP.BTTT

AU Contrair dear vannrox, one must have FEDERAL service which included the military to vote not just military service. A minor point but important.
Heinlein had some interesting thoughts on universal sufferage.
Mainly he was against it. It was his opinion that a person should have some degree of education in order to vote. I do not recall exactly where I read this but I will try to find the cite and pass it on to you.
