I sometimes think I may not vote at all, the only thing that keeps that from being a firm decision right now is that I'm one of those people who think if you don't vote you don't get to complain. STFU.
If you think the electoral system is broken to the point that it's incapable of producing outcomes representative of the general interests of our nation, you have no reason to regret choosing not to participate in it.
If all people who felt that way were to stop participating, it would quickly become apparent that it is an illegitimate institution.
it would also weaken this country to the point where our government would just appoint people to life time positions and we would lose what little voice we have.
You don't seem to understand corruption loves being ignored, that is how we have gotten where we are today.
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
