Starship Troopers?
Yep, and still makes me consider if their way of governance is better than our current state......
Oh, I think it is. If you had to earn your right to vote there would be a hell of a lot less voters, and it would actually mean something.
I liked how you had an absolute right to earn your franchise in the book. Even if you were disabled, the government had to find you something to do if you wanted to serve. But if you didn't have the chops to serve, you consented to letting those who did make the decisions.
Equality of opportunity, not outcome.
Tremendously based. The unrestricted vote was a mistake. Making each and every man earn the vote at risk of their own death would go a long way at cutting down corruption.
