At least here in Wisconsin we get to vote on legalizing marijuana.
And to add. Tomorrow is my birthday.
We voted on that twice in Arizona and congress overturned the popular vote TWICE. Good luck to you guys!
I love your honesty! The fervor surrounding these elections always cracks me up. Go Vote..Because Mmmmerica! It won't change anything but if it makes people feel better about themselves well then, it's better than crack I guess. Hahaha. :)
I'll be casting my ballot for bitcoin.
.
From now on, when people say "Vote!" or "You should vote." Or anything about them voting. I'm just going to say,
"You're brainwashed."
Congratulations you just proved that we don't have a democracy by the people.
Of course it's 2 faces of the establishment, it's not left vs right.
My favorite time in history was the Gilded age, that was dominated by the new Republican Party, which claimed success in saving the Union, abolishing slavery and enfranchising the freedmen, while adopting many Whiggish modernization programs such as national banks, railroads, high tariffs, homesteads, social spending (such as on greater Civil War veteran pension funding), and aid to land grant colleges.
If a majority of people not voting delegitimized government, it would have happed before I was born.
