However if I did have the right to vote I'd probably sell it anyway because I feel the government is totally against my generation (twenty-somethings). We will have no social security and high living costs and taxes are all stacked against us. A lot of young people don't vote because there is a sentiment that things won't change. If every one of us twenty-somethings can sell our vote I think we'd do it just to offset the future costs we will have in this country and all the money we contribute to social security that we will never see.

But again, it depends on the consequences. But just for my one single vote, there's absolutely no question that I wouldn't take the money. I'd volunteer to go to Jury duty too lol In most situations, I’d probably take it. But again, it depends on the consequences.
