If you live in the US there is a big election coming up in a few months. If you haven't registered to vote yet- whatever you do don't !
Let old people that've been making the choices for the past many years continue- things are going so well in the country there is no need to leave the couch to pull any levers.
I recommend developing a major alcohol/drug habit and finding a good TV show to get addicted to.
You are big into music & art so you are obviously not the voting type- don't worry- other people who wear adult diapers will take care of it.
Please do not read newspapers, or their online equivalents- they are so boring... I mean come on- some Hollywood ho just got a new boob job- why are you caring about politics???

Brilliant. I'm a huge fan & was sad when he died- although more of his material came to the forefront-
He really stepped his game up after Chris Rock came on the scene in the 90s-
LOVED the edge he had to his material

They should make voting compulsory

Australia is the only country afaik that enforces the voting - it's a good idea as it makes sure the populace all ahve a voice. You can still vote 'donkey' if you are antiestablishment. Donkey voters are just that though... Donkeys.. :lol:

you just gotta get your name ticked off the ballot, you don't even have to write on the voting papers

as George Carlin (see above) says: this country was bought and sold LONG AGO and these puppets we shuffle around mean NOTHING

i'm a donkey "hee-haw", fuck the illusion of democracy and choice.

That's right! The secret society NWO/Trilateral Commish/Pale Horse riders have taken over everything so there is no need to vote!
Please pay attention to trivial issues instead! Boobs, Blunts, BIg Screen TVs

Tell yourself that the 2 presidential candidates are just 2 heads of the same beast! Even though there are huge differences between the 2- you're better off throwing away your vote to Ron Paul or Ralph Nader - or better yet Listening to "revolutionary" music like Dead Prez, Immortal Tech, Rage Against.. etc.. really loud.. and than not voting at all- I mean why even register?? You would have to be some sort of nerd- no fly girls dig guys who are politically aware- although "Revolutionary steez" is very popular & makes you seem rebel- it is just too mush trouble to do even the smallest thing (like vote) so do not bother---- The US dollar & economy have never been stronger- & that has nothing to do with the fact that more dollars were printed to fund the war- making the existing dollars worth LESS-- but that is some boring Wall Street Journal shit..

Plato said that "democracy is only one step away from tyranny".

He did not, however, say that democracy was tyranny.

"Two heads of the same beast" : Left-Wing sensibilities have left the building? Go to China if you want to really understand what 100% Right-Wing actually looks like

The Aussie New Yorkers I talk to are smitten with Kevin Rudd- quite the character I hear- didn't he even record a song ?

if you don't vote you're being suckered into believing that your vote doesn't count.

have you ever noticed that old white people have a high voter turnout?

have you noticed that old white people get elected most of the time?

have you noticed that most laws in our society benefit OLD WHITE PEOPLE??

do you think there's a correlation here? a cause and effect?

WAKE UP!! if you don't vote then your interests don't get represented.
