I'm not denying many people care about voting. I'm saying due to corporatocracy it is irrelevant.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. Your vote is important.

Hey good job not responding at all to what I wrote. I am definitely convinced now

You wrote about "ancient" history. Your points were correct but irrelevant.

On January 21, 2010, the court issued a 5โ€“4 decision in favor of Citizens United that struck down the BCRA restrictions on independent political expenditures by corporations as violations of the First Amendment,

It doesn't matter who wins if the corporations have bought both sides.

Yes, unfortunately. The corporatocracy wins.

But socially there is certainly a difference and voting does matter. But that is a distraction.

Are you going to not respond to what I wrote or spew your opinion?
