Do Americans realise how absolutely insane the very concept of “purging a voter registration list” is? You have to *register to vote*? What are you even talking about?

Are you a citizen? Then you should automatically get a vote. There isn’t anything to administer. You live there. The government serves you; not you it. Voting isn’t supposed to be a privilege, or reward.

The obvious abuse vector that any system other than “all citizens vote” becomes is astounding.

@mattwilcox do you know of a country that doesn't have some kind of voting registration and also doesn't have an up to date registry that lists where everyone lives (at least approximately, and necessarily approximately for homeless people)?
