[QUOTE="Werewolf, post: 2604020, member: 239"] When there were very real differences between candidates and those elected acted upon those differences voting had an impact. Unfortunately be one democrat or republican the end result is the same. They all act the same once elected and at a macro level create the same legislation - they just do it for different reasons. Add to that that almost 50% of the population of the late great USA is on the dole in one form or another (and I don't include social security in that) and voting becomes even more of a useless exercise. That said: I've not missed a national or state level election and have missed only a very few local elections since I became eligible to vote in 1971. But now - for the 1st time I consciously chose not to vote in Tuesday's joke and may very well choose not to vote in November's joke. [/QUOTE]
