   Even though voting can be analyzed...a charitable organization, a fraternal society, or a trade union.

b. Registration for elections
Income tax form increases registration

Because of privacy concerns...their rate of participation

2. Tax Credits increase the meaning of protesting through abstention
Tax credit system would add to protest of voting

Compulsory voting would also...cost to the vote. 

3. Tax Credits target the root of problems for the non-voting population rather than compulsory voting which only attacks the symptoms of the problems
Tax Credits will be aimed at low-income families
