So you decided to not vote because...?

If you don't like how someone is running the country, then vote for the other candidate. But people like you just think that their vote obviously doesn't count.
both dems and republicans raped this country and now is the time for a new party to step in personally as a registered democrat i was hoping ron paul would win by jumping to the independant group but oviously voting is rigged wich is how romney got to be the republican canidate
 
Well if you didn't vote, then stop complaining and shut the fuck up. Don't complain if you won't even try to help solve the problem.
Can't really fix the problem when they say "who do you want in office, this pile of garbage or this even bigger pile of garbage?"

There is no win, only picking the lesser of two evils to lose less. And sometimes the choices are equally bad so there is no "lesser evil" to choose.

Personally I don't blame him for not voting, and really so what if he didn't vote? He has every right to complain. it effects him like everyone else in this country all the same.

Hell I don't vote and I complain, complain because all the choices are so bad I don't want to vote for any of them. Most of them are pretty bad.

I want better options to vote for damn it LOL.

As I've said before this isn't a political website. If you want to share your views, then you can PM them to me, but we're on the complete opposite sides of the political spectrum. So, you wouldn't like my views.

It doesn't make sense to complain when you won't try to change it.

It's like me complaining if a restaurant were to get my order wrong, but I won't tell them to fix my order.

im suprised nobody in our country has rioted like greece or egypt tbh
Holdon, are you honestly comparing enforcement of state taxes for online transactions to the Arab Spring revolts? You can vote, dude, and your vote is actually counted, unlike the people who rioted in Egypt because of their de facto dictatorship and power structure that is so corrupt ours looks angelic by comparison.

First world problems. Jesus.

Taxes are low compared to the rest of the world, and low compared to U.S. historic standards. For most of the 20th century, the marginal income tax rate on the highest earners was over 60%, and during most of the 40s and 50s, it was 90%.

So you think that slightly normalizing tax rates should be enough to spark a violent revolution? Silly.

Have you realized that only the Senate has approved it?

It has to pass the House, and with it being Republican-controlled, it doesn't have a high chance of passing, due to it being a tax increase.

You can breathe a sigh of relief.

Yes but you seem mentally retarded.

Here's another source:

You just don't want to trust it because it would mean that you would have to agree with Republicans, while you yourself said that you are a registered Democrat.

Quote me where I said you were attacking Republicans. I just said you didn't want to agree with them. Sensitive much?

And duh, both sides helped this get through the Senate. I'm just telling you why there's not a large possibility it would get through the House.

If you don't vote, you are part of the problem. Plain and simple.

Why would i vote? The last 16 years that i did vote it didnt really matter, nothing changed.promises, promises... Besides i dont see any reason to vote if u vote for a group(not sure what the right word is), and they get many votes, but still lose because 2 other groups with less votes unite so they still win.
Besides i dont believe in these materialistic systems anyway. U see how it works for the last 40 years

Parliamentary systems (the aforementioned "voting for a group") do have their issues, but at least they aren't as prone to blind partisanship. Personally, I would rather vote for a platform than an individual.

Also, didn't Belgium have a fairly major change in 2011 with that Rupo guy?
