And...well, that's not happening.Politics is the most useless thing that any average citizen tries to get involved in be it voting or debating it. Nothing is changing for you. That's a simple fact. That's why I don't vote (and, well, with that...no jury duty comes my way) and I don't debate it (cause it simply does not matter one bit who is in charge - if you're broke, you'll still be broke. If you're angry, you'll still be angry. No politician will change that from your local mayor to the president of the USA.)
You're just trying to rationalize your lack of political engagement. Nothing could be further from the truth. Bonn touched on just a couple of examples
Correct and so is Bonn. The Politicians may act lazy or like scumbags at times, but our society hangs onto the decisions they make, whether we like it or not, just as we need the CEOs of the world, so all of the businesses we need can be run properly.
We may not agree with them, but without them, America would crumble before our own eyes.
