- camgunz 7y agoPlease stop freeloading on our electricity, food, sanitation, roads, police/fire/education, the US military, and thousands of other services, renounce your citizenship, and leave at your earliest convenience. The US is pretty frothy about undocumented immigrants these days, so I would advise you not to dither.
- DanBC 7y agoYou know not voting isn't a choice for some people, right?
- camgunz 7y agoOh you mean like, felon/child/etc. suffrage? I'm fully in favor of extending the franchise to every living American; I think it's a fundamental right and morally outrageous that we ever deny it. But I don't think that that means representative democracy in the US is a sham, equivalent to the level of representation I have at Facebook (again, zero). That would be a strawman.
- conanbatt 7y agoI don't live in the us so I'm not using your electricity. I'd argue the pettiness of your argument if it were at least applicable.
- camgunz 7y agoThen s/US/<your country>. It applies equally.
