Let voters think for themselves

Dear Editor,

Is it not surprising that Minister of Justice Senator Mark Golding finds it so necessary to champion the suggestion of his private sector colleagues that 'failure to vote for the People's National Party' would be tantamount to madness'.

He should have given some credit to our fast-maturing voting population to be capable of analysing those considerations for themselves. Does he not know that our cherished democracy is strengthened by independent thought?

Based on his own account, he would already have the votes of his private sector colleagues safely in the bag, by virtue of their capacity for sound evaluation of the voting paradigm.

Kindly realise, though, Minister, that by your very own token, you may realise tons more votes should you allow independent thinking, such as abounds in the private sector, to proliferate elsewhere.
