never happen. You’d need positive picture ID at the polls to be sure you got everyone.

Why dont we just create a Federal program for surrogates to vote for the welfare staters, et al?

Appointed of course, by the President’s Just Us Dept.

Well, I like my bill better... Only preppie who pay taxes and are citizens can vote. If I pay the bill, I should decide how the money is spent. Works for me.

Jury duty is mandatory; why not voting If you are not registered to vote, most likely you are not on jury duty selection radar.

yes. predictable move from the statists. mandatory voting was enforced in ancient and is again enforced in modern grece, today.

and the historians among us know how democracy ended in ancient grece, and how history is again repeating itself again.

our founders and framers were so incredibly wise.

Mental picture —

Frosty pre-dawn on election day,

National Guard deuce-and-a-halfs parked on each block, as armed troopers go house-to-house, breaking down doors and herding every person of voting age, still in sleep attire, into the trucks...

While ‘patriotic’ music blares from loudspeakers....

“The U.S. prides itself as the beacon of democracy”

Certain citizens thereof have, especially for the last century or so. But we are not a democracy, or didn’t used to be. We wouldn’t benefit from being more democratic, quite the contrary.

Saddam Hussein’s Iraq had mandatory voting laws and it worked out great for him.

This is a FANTASTIC idea if it has one slightly small tweak: Make it MANDATORY ALL Taxpayers vote. Optional... or even illegal, if not. Then it’s a DEAL!

Okay, Mr. Orzag, just for fun, please point to the part of the constitution that allows for mandatory voting.
