> So let's hear from you, what are we supposed to do? You're supposed to pick a side, from the choices given to you, because that's how government works. Government is not about getting what you want. Government is about picking from the limited choices given to you. Complaints about your limited choices go unheeded, because no one wants 300 million choices in government since everyone wants to be their own pretty princess that rules the country. So we, as a society, decided to limit you to 2 choices, and you can proceed from there. So, which side are you on? R or D? Pick, because no one is on your side.

'Government is not about getting what you want. ' This speaks for itself

  If only more people knew this about how government actually worked. They would complain less, and be more appreciative of the people that actually choose to run for public office.

    If more people knew "about how [this particular] government actually worked", there would be more political assassinations. Fortunately there are other less drastic options, but we'll have to ignore you and your "best of all possible worlds" bullshit to effectively pursue them. What really blows my mind is that all these self-described "progressives" have decided this particular monstrous warmonger is the line they won't abide crossing. Have you ever actually listened to a single thing HRC said?

      Oh it's certainly a better system than your "Waaah! Waaah! Why aren't these politicians waiting on me hand-and-foot? Waaah!" system of governance... Government is about what you do for others. Government is not about what it does for you. Why? Because you are insignificant.

You've deteriorated to self-parody here. Also you've conceded, in bizarrely triumphant fashion, the awful truth I highlighted at the top of the thread: in USA we effectively have no choice in political outcomes.

  I'm glad you agree that you have a choice in your vote. Now, pick.
