Putting aside the fact that this, again, is a huge blow against the basic human right of self determination, in politics there are no such things as facts. Take one look at the shape of congressional voting districts and tell me anybody with power at stake can be trusted to make a fair questionnaire.

Which, even if they could, is basically indefensible from a personal freedom standpoint.
