Question: Why is everyone talking about politics all the god damn time!? can't you see we're being distracted!? !?
Everyone knows that voting is just an illusion of choice!.
Voting is just like buying shampoo: It doesn't matter which brand you buy: Herbal Essences or Pert Plus!.!.!.they're both made by Procter and Gamble!

It doesn't matter who you vote for, the government still gets in!

They're going to do whatever they want anyway!

If voting changed anything!. If it really did something!. It would be outlawed!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well, I'm an American and a registered voter (only registered to get my ID) and have never voted in my entire life and chooses not to vote!. So, that being said, I totally and wholeheartedly agree!. I am also sure that we are being distracted by this election!. I can see straight through this sham!. Great question/post!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

While it may seem like a futile action, voting is the option most of us choose to voice our opinions!. You're right that it's not always enough, and that's why people need to be active with their votes and not just vote and forget every X years!. If there's something you really believe in and feel the need to introduce it to government, start small and continue to work until you've reached the ears and minds of those willing to help you!. Get your fellow countrymen aware of the situations around you and inspire them to improve their lives and the lives of others!. If the government still turns a deaf ear to the people's plight, it may be time for the people to make a new choice in their leaders!. Run for a local office and work your way up the ladder; but remember to listen to the people for whom you entered the office, lest you grow as aloof and deaf as your former opponents!. The worst thing you can do is nothing -- only then have you truly lost your ability to make changes!.

Nobody changes the world in one day, but one person can start the ripple that make a real difference!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

There is some truth to what you say, but the one chosen will determine which parts of their agenda they want to put in!. I said "want to put in!." We can make changes, they want us to believe that we can't!.
