We all have a constitutional right to complain but no constitutional
duty to vote.
As I understand it, there is a fine imposed on Australians who don't show up to participate in national elections.
I am in favor of instituting such a system in the u.s.

Funny, I'm in favor of making them take a test on US History and the Constitution BEFORE they can vote. Also, anyone taking money from the government (employee, welfare, social security) can't vote. It's a conflict of interest.
But that has nothing to do with Linux, which by the way, I'm happy to vote for with my feet. I just bought a book about writing Linux Device Drivers (v3 for the 2.6 kernel). Very interesting. Now to find the time to read it!
