ttbn,

"I will always believe that compulsion in any area where other people can't be hurt is undemocratic."

Remember the Menzies Govt. that sent our troops to Vietnam, conscripts included, maybe the families of those killed in action, wounded or who suffered other effects would not agree with you.

Do you really think that compulsion was democratic where their loved ones could be hurt?

Is Mise,

There is no need to attack Ttbn, when he is under attack by COVID-19 at present! I hope he doesn't live in Victoria!

I am also really not interested in Maggie Thatcher and her 46% vote.

Why should Cherful feel the need to say: "I was upset when we had to go to vote in an election, in Townsville"?

Australia's voting system is not democratic and having people feeling the need to be forced to vote during a COVID-19 epidemic or at any time is a disgrace.

I wish people in Australia had a voting system that allowed them to have more say in the outcome. Maybe it's time for people to overthrow Governments across Australia via riots and on street protests?

I wouldn't usually recommend that, but it may be the only option available if people like you don't change your mind!

Nathan,

Then tell us all what a democratic voting system is.
