> a system which encourages vote harvesting even more than it already is is encouraged is not a step in the right direction

Are you arguing that it’s bad when all Americans are encouraged to vote? That sounds like a functional democracy to me.

Yes, encouraging everyone to vote is bad.

I agree with many of the Founders that the people often get in their own way, not thinking rationally and focusing only on the short term.

The will and petty desire of the mob needs to be balanced against what is really good for the nation in the long run.
