For those that believe that the US is # 1 at everything, they have no need to look to Australia or Mexico to see the BEAUTY of compulsory voting. They really don't want to KNOW when ANYTHING is better in another country. They prefer the blindness of ignorance to the light of knowledge. |

Males only win in greater % today because of tradition and Washington being slow to change. Has not everyone heard the statement that a woman has to be TWICE as good at whatever job to get hired versus a man? That IS TRUTH, not conjecture. Again for inspiration, we can go to other countries for answers........Australia, New Zealand and many European countries have already had WOMEN leaders. And AGAIN the US is the BACKWARD outlier.
At the current US rate of REGRESSION, we will soon look like the "Handmaiden's Tale"!!!!!! And China will be eating our lunch. |

True leaders work for idealistic principles, NOT MERELY for money and POWER. That is where many people are wrong. And too many people try to win a discussion by bringing up the 1950s RED scare buggaboo about a communist behind every bush. Warren Buffet does NOT need ANY more money - he works for the pleasure of solving problems and meeting and influencing people!

Voting for them I think is not a good solution. I would prefer them to be chosen at random from justices that have a proven track record. But, I am not sure what that track record would be. |

It is way past time to curtail the 1st. Hate speech and intentionally spreading provable lies and nonsense that can and do result in. people dying should be punishable.

That would suggest that those same age folks should not be able to vote.

I don't think that was what was meant at all.
Media can be held liable for publishing intentional untruths that cause harm (defamation), only it rarely happens. Media just hide behind the First Amendment and nothing is done. But media can be held criminally liable as well. In cases where intentional spreading of false information, "FCC rules specifically say that the "public harm must begin immediately, and cause direct and actual damage to property or to the health or safety of the general public, or diversion of law enforcement or other public health and safety authorities from their duties." Maybe its time we not only hold media accountable for provably damaging hate speech, but one another as well. |
