The Mandatory Voting Madness (Leadership)
The article discusses the concept of mandatory voting and its potential implications. It argues that while mandatory voting may seem like a good idea in theory it goes against the principles of democracy and freedom of choice. The author points out that forcing citizens to vote may lead to uninformed and coerced decisions resulting in a flawed electoral process. Additionally mandatory voting may disproportionately affect marginalized and disadvantaged groups who may not have the resources or ability to participate. The article concludes that instead of mandating voting efforts should be made to educate and engage citizens in the democratic process.
