It important that the pretense be maintained - the last thing we want is the masses getting a hint that their participation is sort of meaningless (actually, the masses are too dumb to ever notice, but hat the hey). Therefore it is your duty to vote, if only to maintain the current fantasy just a little bit longer.

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio

For each issue that more than 10% of the overall voters request, it goes to a web based referendum, where all the voters are eligible, and the majority decides. Would be an interesting experiment.If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

Once people figure out that they can vote to give themselves things that they don't have to give, democracy becomes the worst form of government.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

Of course, Jefferson also thought the future belonged to a giant class of educated, independent farmers, so it could be a stopped-clock kind of situation.
