34% of the US population doesn’t vote. Why do polticalitcians cling to the idea that these voters can’t be reached?

Agreed. Even though I think voting is the right thing to do, forcing people to vote is an infringement on their freedom and I don’t think it’s justified.

When I think of the cost of that freedom it doesn’t seem too steep.

People want all the benefits but none of the responsibility, IMO.

I definitely see your viewpoint though.
