I vote, but I'm not delusional to think that midterm voting is going to change the fact that our government doesn't represent its tax paying people. Your assumption was that I'm saying not to bother, no, I'm saying that there are some substantial problems with how our system has been taken advantage of by lobbying which is deeply seeded in our process. Thats why I take a issue with "both sides amiright!" I'd love to see that vote happen with stronger campaign finance laws, but it will not happen as that isn't what the people that throw billions into our politicians want to happen. We've just been sitting around in this country looking at how corporations have become more important people -- than people themselves. Who is going to put pressure on those candidates to get campaign finance law reform that trumps the money taken to run for office or campaign? Again, like what we are seeing with GOP representatives ignoring what a majority of republicans want. There is a core issue here that isn't going to be resolved by voting for people who are in seats paid for by lobbies to begin with. Its like the police investigating themselves of wrong doing. It always comes up negative.
I see too many instances of some small town candidate being railroaded by some giant fucking industry. And the people that allow the giant industry to railroad are the people making the rules, who often have revolving doors to said giant industry.
