No Compulsory Votes Sept 11th,2012
Politicians don't want compulsory votes that might bring change,
They could be out of a job and homeless in the exchange,
Therefore this subject is forbidden and never spoken,
And the silence on this subject is secret and never broken.
And mandatory voting might interfere with human rights,
Especially here in Canada under the northern lights,
And the connected fine might interfere with many poor folk,
The government should know that these folk are already broke.
So aristocrats can stay in Ottawa for the rest of their lives,
Though it may be questionable if democracy survives,
No binding referendums or death with dignity allowed,
While the media moguls instruct us all to feel proud.
