Mandatory voting is a terrible idea and it's embarrassing to see so many liberals endorsing it because they wrongly think it would help their 'side' in elections.
This has always bothered me.  If you know the ignorant, apathetic and dumb are generally going to vote the same way you do...I don't know, seems like it would make me question why I'm voting that way.

How can the 'political class' be changed when people aren't voting to change it?
I'll field this one.

We've been convinced that we should vote for the lesser of two evils.  So people either hold their nose and pull the lever for whichever piece of trash is slightly less disgusting than the other piece of trash, or they stay home cause what's the piont?  Trash is trash.
