Extract

Compulsory Voting is a "solution" (a bad one) so before our points are raised about how bad this "solution" is. Why is there a solution, in a healthy democracy people should want to vote. If they are not voting it indicates there is a fundamental problem with that democracy; forcing people to vote cannot solve such a problem. It merely causes resentment.
And well resentment will cause many other bad things. Such as people who are forced to vote will not make a proper considered decision. At best they will vote randomly which disrupts the proper course of voting.
