The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

Flame away, I'm ok with it. They are all crooked. I don't swing that way....
It is not a matter of flaming. But if you a not willing to contribute to a solution then you can't complain about the problem.
The problems have been going on forever, and are just getting worse. Dont you understand that the system cannot, and will not change? What part of corruption dont you guys understand? <--- I understand that ignoring it will not make it go away.Why do people want to turn a "blind eye" to what's going on in the gobment? <--- Only by not participating in the process are you turning a "blind eye"
People can call me "un American" all they want.
What is un American, is for the a-holes that run this country to be lying, cheatin, and stealing from their hard working citizens. And I'm one of them!
I've said it before and I'll say it again. 12th grade kids would do a better job....
above
I give you an A+ on post editing! Other than that, you are doing nothing by casting yer vote. Providing that they actually remember to count yours...
You should be grateful that more do not adopt this attitude.. Apathy is a terrible thing in the political system and does lead to the breakdown..The problems have been going on forever, and are just getting worse.

I would hope that more people are incited to get active and vote about stuff that matters to them..
Whether you feel you have any control or not, surrendering to the system like this absolutely guarantees you have no control over the system
OK Lets cut to the chase.
The system is here.
The candidates are picked and on the ballot.
Who out there thinks that they are doing something to improve our (the world) lot by voting?
And how exactly is just casting a vote, hindering the triumph of evil?
Which one is evil? McCain or Obama?
You have to pick one and obviously the other is evil, not?
Brendanp and I, by our decision not to vote are doing what we have within our power.
Not participating.
That is not surrendering or doing nothing.
That is a boycott of the dishonesty, corruption, greed and evil that exists.
If the majority of people didn’t vote, that would indicate to the majority of people that they were not happy with the current system, and then they may organize and do something to change it.
Participating in it, as it is, does not allow for fundamental change, but gives whatever candidate who wins, a mandate that he is OK, accepted, agreed with and supported.
