Boro,
Quick question. Why do so many AC'ers who don't vote spend so much time discussing politics?

The real question is why do so many people believe that voting is any way to go about changing a political system.

Is it a sports fan kind of thing or what? Now I guess you could say your purpose is to get even more people not to vote, but what would be the purpose of that? Unless there is some kind of quorum rule for elections that I'm not aware of that is. And if your purpose is the contrary, i.e. revolution, then why not work for that instead of focusing on the politics of the system you hate? Just curious.

A) You're focusing on the nearly irrelevent detail of not voting.
B) I am focusing on revolution, the only kind that matters, which is spreading the word that the system has a fundamental conceptual flaw. It will not be fixed with bandaid "reforms" that are akin to installing a new brand of screen door on your submarine.
