One could enhance it into an art installation with thermite.
It’s not an internet thing, or even a technology thing. This is an example of the general debasement of society wrought through half a century of rampant sociopathic neoliberal shitfuckery.
One place I’d like to see this start to be corrected, is treating what is currently understood to be intellectual property as the intrinsically abundant resource it is, instead of the artificially scarce, zero-sum concept it’s currently encrusted as.

Using the formula as written, anyone aged 40-49 would have a vote weighted at 85%. You’d have to make it to 210 years old to reach 0%.

- Compulsory voting at 18.
- A citizen’s vote has a weight of 100% until 20, then drops 5% at each birthday that ends with a 0.
The reason for the diminishing weight of a vote is to correlate with the diminished exposure political decisions will have on the citizen.
