[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 4099369, member: 18225"] That’s the rub, isn’t it? No one votes because it seems an exercise in futility, but it’s that way because not enough people get engaged locally or nationally to understand what they’re voting for, so the vote-winners are always the ones who are the most well-funded, leading to a hopeless situation where most folk (perhaps rightfully) think their vote doesn’t count. Go back to square one, get engaged, and if voter turnout got close to fifty percent we could turn this nonsense around. But honestly it’s easier to complain than it is to do the bare-minimum as a responsible citizen. [/QUOTE]
