Essay talk:Needed Constitutional Amendments (Javascap)

Well, I'm never a fan of compulsory voting. I don't think it makes much sense to force people to do such a thing, even if you make it very clear that ticking "none of the above" or spoiling your paper is a valid choice, people won't feel that way. If it's true apathy, they'll just go ahead and tick a random box or enter the booth uninformed and ready to tick whatever they feel like. This sort of behaviour is inevitable when you force people to vote. ArmondikoV^theist 10:56, 22 October 2008 (EDT)

14th Amendment

So, my son, who's mother is a US citizen and father a UK citizen, where does he stand? Your current wording does not make this clear. Silver Sloth 11:02, 22 October 2008 (EDT)

Privacy only from government?

In case you haven't noticed, the most egregious violations of our privacy come from the private sector. The government has always needed to supply at least a token justification of violating our privacy. Private firms are excepted even from that and get carte blanche to assemble massive amounts of data on us.
