ok, my point is the way to AT LEAST TRY to fix the system is by participation. Non participation will only ensure you lose what you DO have.

It's a lost cause... voting or electing another candidate only leads to more corruption. Even if they're not crooked to being with, they'll eventually become corrupted by other politicans. They scratch each others backs and work together. If a law passes by means of voting and the politicans don't like it, they'll appeal it to the supreme court, and you know they have connections there.

if you dont vote you cant get them out of office. its that simple it is your right to vote. you might think "i'm only 1 person" but if all of you who felt that way used your right the political situations would be alot different!

And so did germany, until the rest of the world joined forces and kicked their ***.

Germany probably would've won the war even if the rest of the world join the Allied Forces. They screwed themselves by breaking the Nazi Soviet Noneagression Pact, and ultimately led to a two front war, so they lost.

Jobs are scares in the United States, and even college graduates find it difficult to obtain a job out of school. This is also why the middle-class is slowly disappearing in the US, because the rich keep getting richer, and the poor keep on getting poorer. In the end, the Microsoft’s, chevrons, war-profiteers, and the corporations will control a large portion of the nations wealth, and the average Joe's of the US will be left to suffer. These monopolies’s are slowly taking over the nation, and the politicians stand and watch because their dirty money and corrupt minds keep them quiet.

i dont knwo where your from, but jobs are not scares around here. but you know it all right?

taxes will need to be raised to pay off the federal debt. That or the tax money being used be used more efficiently //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif (there is a war to pay for :?)

Politics is not hopeless... its just horribly inefficient.

have a friend who thinks hes a extreme anarchist. Still wants to live in his 1,000,000 dollar home with his parents at the age of 20 and still wants to enjoy everything the government gives him, but when it comes to voting he just wouldnt, reasoning that its all bullshit anyways and everyone is corrupt and its mind control etc. Yeah... that will show them? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif
