People always find a reason not to and then bitch about what they settle for anyway.
I agree with you if you have nothing to lose, which from your earlier post in this thread, sounds to be the case. After 2012, I wrote this country off on FR, said we had passed the tipping point, and it was inevitable downhill from here. I guess I have some optimism back, now that two candidates I like are #1 and #2 in the polls. In the end, I hope either side of our divide hold their noses and vote for the other side's candidate, as to not do so, puts us back to where we were in 2012, only it may be un-retrievable by then. Then again, I was wrong to think 2012 was our last opportunity?
They nonvoters are usually the smart ones. They stay home, and we fools take the time out of our day to bless the greater evil, and the oligarchs continue on their merry way with nary a care in the world.
