As feared, the effects of legislation not authorized by our government, but enforced upon us has already affected the level of intelligence of our people. Case in point:

The Issue
In response to a slow news week, certain highbrow newspapers have stirred up the debate over voluntary vs compulsory voting.

The Debate
"Compulsory voting makes about as much as sense as having the death penalty for attempted suicide," says civil rights activist Violet Love. "You can't force people to be free! You can only give them the choice. Besides, if all those derelicts who can't be bothered to get off their ass once every few years voted, who would they elect? I shudder to think."
[Accept]

"It's not contradictory at all," argues political commentator Stephanie McAlpin. "The fact is, if not everyone votes, the outcome isn't truly representative. Some groups--like elderly gun nuts--vote more often than others. That's why we always end up with such terrible politicians."

This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.

"This raises an interesting issue," says Falala Wall, your brother. "And that is: why do we need elections, anyway? Seems to me it would be much simpler if you just decided what was right, and did it. Wouldn't that save everyone a lot of time?"
[Accept]

The Government Position
The government has indicated its intention to follow the recommendations of Option 2.

Since this legislation has already been adopted in the above parameters, the re-emergence of the issue shall lead to it's dismissal.
