Should voting be compulsory for all citizens or people should have freedom to choose not to vote. What is your opinion?

Should voting be compulsory for all citizens or people should have freedom to choose not to vote. What is your opinion? DlwXE
Many assert that not voting is a fundamental right, a free expression of political discontent. Some go as far as to say that compulsory voting is worse than being denied a vote and a violation of rights. Legal cases have been brought in defense of the right not to vote but to date no court has enforced it. Should it be true that the right to vote could be waived and hence in itself be a right not to vote and deserve constitutional protection? If so could other basic rights be waived? The minimum wage? Equal employment? Hill argues that legal recognition of the right not to vote is a dangerous path to tread. The right to vote is an individual liberty but crucially a collective right at the core of democracy. Without political participation from society, government, public interests, security and the very fabric of society would be at stake. Vulnerable social groups would lose their voices; failure to vote could bring political oppression and far greater infringements to personal freedom. Hill therefore reasons that voting is a right and a duty; key to the structure and values of society, a moral responsibility and more important than an individual’s right not to vote. So voluntary voting systems can continue to allow abstention, compulsory systems can have exemptions but as Hill states this “will not — and should not — constitute the exercise of any particular right, ” and “doing so would endanger — and possibly destroy — the system for which it exists: representative democracy. ”
