The crooks will get in, Crook A or Crook B… both will push for what THEY believe in is right, right for them NOT YOU. They can argue and speak out on commercials all they want… “I am a peoples man, I do whats best for real citizens…” the fuck you do, show me the REAL results. **Real results where the overwhelming majority of the citizens your decisions are impacting AGREE WITH YOUR DECISION.** Once that’s accomplished, I will get of my “lazy” ass and vote to RE ELECT you. > > voting is the number one most over rated, under utilized piece of shit “decision making” tool we have in this country. Your vote is already cast for you, well more specifically grossly narrowed down, in front of a $50K rare rainforest red oak board room table, with some rare 25 year old wine, by people wearing suits that cost more than my daily driver. All your doing by voting is picking the lesser of two evils, based on million dollar campaign ads based 5% on truth, 70% on shit talking and undermining the competitor then 25% plugging names and organizations who paid for said ad. > > the only thing we can do I think is civil disobedience, just like Gandhi. Get out your bike and protest up and down that dick’ block in front of his house. > > Ohhh yessss I will. I agree with you 100%. No matter what they say during the race(s) and while in office, it usually is a bunch of lies so when people say, “Unless you vote, you have no reason to complain” they are just blind to what is really happening. Obama, McCain, Bush…they are all the same. Sure they might mean good and run into oppression from the senate and the house (if not controlled by them so to speak) but still… The only way to change this country is for everyone to finally get fed up and pull a Libya and/or Egypt and overthrow the government and HOPEFULLY start with a new government which actually DOES care for the people that votes it in. Until then, we’ll be stuck in the cycle we are in and that is lobby groups controlling our politicians and politicians looking out for their own bottom line and not ours. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/thats-it-this-is-the-last-straw-i-am-burning-down-the-building/257126)._
