I think that's a weird and very popular position.
So you don't vote allowing OTHERS to decide the process for you.
Other people who say, elect leaders who nominate Conservative Supreme Court Judges, who then side with the FEC allowing corporations to fund political advertisements. This was quite preventable.
I mean good on you for standing to your principles but with a whole collective of intelligent people abstaining, it's making it much easier for powerful people who want certain laws to happen... well happen.
- steveklabnik 16y agoYou're taking a single-issue view of this. No matter who I vote for, I will not be happy with the outcome. And it's roughly equal, all around. So the distinction is irrelevant. I am powerless to effect any kind of meaningful change. Asking me to vote is like asking me "Do you still beat your wife?" in some sense. There's no good way out. The best option is to not reply. That's not even getting into my philosophical issues with government in the first place.
