Half of Americans Don't Vote. What Are They Thinking?

10. If the other half voted chaos would ensue

We are barely prepared to count the vote that shows up. Try to imagine twice as many people and problems.
We need a way to vote and tally the results that is as trusted and accurate as the way we spend and account for money.
If we can keep track of all the money spent in billions of transactions using a myriad of methods each and every day we can surely figure out how to count a few hundred million votes every few years.
The fact that we don't, not can't, gives rise to suspicion that the powers that be do not want a trusted or accurate system.
