Why is low voter turnout in the US a serious problem?
Low voter turnout is a serious problem if the low turnout is due to intimidation at the polls or at registration, since it means the election is not fair and may not reflect the will of the people. However, if the low turnout is due to a lack of interest, it may not be so bad. It may be that the people who do not vote are content with letting the people who study the issues and know the candidates make the decisions on who goes into office. There have been times and places where food and liquor was offered at the polls to entice voters, but this practice has been made illegal in the US even though it probably increased vote turnout.

What are some turnout faults in ballet?
Turnout faults, are not really faults as such. The human body is not designed to function with 90 degree or over turnout. The faults that arise from turnout, are usually from forcing the legs and feet to rotate further than anatomically possible for that particular body. A very small proportion of people have extremely supple hip sockets that allow for maximum rotation. Unfortunately the few make the 'ideal' turnout what everyone else is aiming for. This brings about many complications in the hip socket, knees, and feet. The most common is 'rolling' from forcing turnout so the feet roll inward. After a time this then effects the knees. Pain in the knees and in the feet can result from this. Hip socket pain is common also as turnout is actually from the hip socket, not the feet or the knees. Ideally, gentle stretching from when one is very young is the best way to develop turnout. This is why many dancers start ballet at a young age.
