Wow, please make voting more complicated and with more steps and more hurdles to keep people out.
- $40 fee is a hurdle.! (500 xem)
- Being 21 is an ageism hurdle!.
- Government I.D. is a hurdle!
- Number of steps is a hurdle!
This is reason people don’t vote in political elections; TOO many hurdles.
ID verification is one way politicians keep out poor people from participating in a democracy.
I am well over 21 myself so my disgust at this is NOT personal.
THERE should be a very VERY small fee if any (not 500xem, maybe 5 maybe 1). This is economic discrimination and not a well functioning democracy.
And age does NOT matter when it comes to ideas, why in the world would you have that qualification!!!???
Why would you keep out the young generation that is the future of all this???
Is a 19 year old programmer with solutions for NEM and stake in NEM not worth listening to?
** NEWS FLASH the Ethereum white paper was published by a 19 year old !!! **
Vitalik Buterin
Do I need to say more on this matter of **ageism **(prejudice or discrimination on the basis of a person’s age.)???
Very disappointed
