The right to vote in the United States was inspired by the principles of democratic rule found in two ancient civilizations: Gre

ek and
Roman Athenian democracy was founded on the idea of direct involvement of its citizens. In the Roman Republic, elected
representatives governed on behalf of the citizens. In both cases, citizens had a voice in government, either directly or through elected
councils, and were expected to participate by voting
Democratic government in the United States gives citizens the opportunity to vote for their representatives, but many people choose
not to exercise that right. In many countries, however, compulsory voting laws exist that require all citizens to vote in elections.
In a well-developed essay that includes an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion, explain whether the United States should
enact a compulsory voting law or let voting remain optional. Be sure to address counterclaims in your essay and include reasons and
evidence to support your argument.

Answer:

Heres mine

Explanation:

I think that they should let voting remain optional because there are some people who cant decide who to vote and it will put a lot of stress on them so it will push them to vote randomly. You can also die from too much stress! That is why I think they should let voting become optional.

If they enact a compulsory voting law then a lot of people will probably protest and there will be a lot of danger and riots because of it. When there are alot of riots it will lead to a nation crisis and people will suffer a lot because of it.

This is just my opinion and people might disagree with me but I personally think voting should remain optional.

What would of happened if the constitution never got signed?
creativ13 [48]
If the Constitution had not been ratified the United States would not be the way it is now. Our rights that we have today are protected by the Constitution and if it had not been ratified we could not have been guaranteed the life that we have now (which most people around the globe wish to have.) The Constitution is a major part of U.S history and if it were not ratified the history of this country would have changed completely. Congress would have been working for the governments best interest and not the citizens' best interest. I also think that if the Constitution was never ratified, the U.S would have split into two separate nations- North and South. The North would have continued in the industry world while the South would have chosen the world of agriculture.
