If that's how you feel, vote.
Until enough people agree with you and get the law changed, it's the law. You don't get to blatantly disregard it just because you disagree with it.
At the very least don't act surprised when disregarding the law results in punishment. It's kind of like, "Duh, what did you expect?"
- the_ancient 11y agoFirst past the post voting schemes are less than useless, wasting your time voting in American elections is not a way to effect change. If you believe your vote matters I have a shit ton of math I can throw at you to show you how it does not
- jlarocco 11y agoIMO, it's a good thing that no individual's vote "matters" in this kind of stuff. If it did, voting would be pointless and everybody would just go around doing whatever they wanted. As it stands, society has decided that we don't want people and companies doing whatever they want, and we want them to follow certain rules. We tried the laissez-faire system and in almost every case the end result was giant corporations screwing people over in some way.
