I'm having a look at voting turnouts for the last elections and parts of this one so far, and it's absolutely abysmal. How can anyone be called elected by the people when 48% eligible to vote in 2012 DIDNT?
Why is nobody in the US bringing up this horrendous failure? Is anyone going "Guys, what the fuck?"
On top of this is the most absurd thing called "vote registration". How can the largest, richest so called democracy in the world not know where people live? Here in my country we see on our voting papers where we can go and when. If you live in the same area as last time you voted, you just go to where you last voted.
Why is there this blatantly redundant step to voting?
Democracy seems blatantly broken in the US. What's worse is that nobody seems to care. Complete apathy reigns and soon you might facing having an Umpa Loompa as president.
Ofcourse you're gonna lose democracy when you don't care to participate in it. You can break an establishment you don't like, by voting for one that is different to it. BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT!
