agreed, it should an annoying, tedious, civic duty, like jury duty. Maybe it should also be like jury duty too where you can't talk about the poo poo you're up to until after you're done. Could it really end up that much worse than being ruled by filthy rich people?

maybe we should vote for president but they should pretty much just be a figurehead who signs bills into law and has a weekly podcast called Fireside Chats where they tell you reassuring, light propaganda.

President should be lottery too and it would be the worst one to get. “gently caress, I just got selected for president for four loving years. Why does this poo poo happen to me!!”

The president should be decided by Pogs. Whoever slams the most pogs and has the largest collection (not counting slammers) is the president. You could take the presidency by challenging the president to a game of Pogs (the president would not be able to decline pogs challenges)

Okay, serious answer.

I knew a very intelligent guy a few years back. He was my tutor for CCNA. Those were just nightclasses, he taught other things during the day - university level stuff. Obviously not stupid but he was completely focused on I.T. and STEM subjects. He was telling us about some new protocol being developed in Korea for mobile phones. He couldn't tell us if it was North or South Korea. I had to tell him that owning a mobile phone in the north would probably get you sent to a gulag.

Like I said, an IQ test is not a political knowledge test.

The problem isn't wether you're smart or not, it's wether you're a complete c**t or not.

Rats can still show compassion, they wouldn't pass an IQ test, but a Hillary or Bush voter would.

you should have to pay $10.00 to vote and $5.00 to put your own custom image on your ballot and then another $10 to put a fuckin grenade or some poo poo on your ballot and ask other people what their vote is and then another $10.00 to put a funny name on your vote such as "votes cure tyranny" or "vote reaper"
