when more than $0.42 of every dollar you earn goes into Uncle Sam’s pocket youll start voting the same… regardless i could start spouting out political science how peoples’ votes dont actually count due to the electorate, youd only count in the primaries, but that would be a ludicrous waste of time… ie theres no need to explain why my voting preference lended from a view of ignorance really isnt, its more an issue of ideology, but heres just a little something to think about: (pB+D) \> C, where: d=citizen duty c=cost of voting p=probability B=difference between candidates p/probability is a low number, its the probability of your vote actually counting, which is less than 1/100,000 so when you work out the formula the difference between candidates is null, under the premise that nobody should vote unless they believe one candidate is ~million times better than the other… but still unless youre stupid youll know that your vote in the presidential election doesnt matter, because we have an electorate, and youre a shining example of D from the formula, and you feel happy thinking you matter ---

Hard to say who you’ll vote for when you don’t know what the choices will be yet. Pretty good probability I’ll be voting Republican though. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/one-year-from-the-elections/38084.md?page=2)
