One half of the OBAMcCAIN abomination is counting on the votes of the young idealistic voters to sweep him to victory. He may be right, but not if they understand what they are voting for. He cries "change" while representing the exact same socialistic nonsense that has been actively destroying freedom for centuries. Your future is at risk from this man and those like him!
Young people need hope. They look to others to provide that hope, only to be used as pawns for ambition. I aim to give them real hope by pointing out that "hope" should come from inside, not from others. I would tell them "Trust your own abilities". I trust them, and all people, to know what is best for their own lives. You can't get experience in living your life if no one lets you.
The state, and much of society, wants to keep them dependent and helpless for many years beyond their real childhood. And then it blames them when they act like the irresponsible children they have been trained to be. That's ridiculous, and cruel.
Look, if you are young and idealistic, don't fall for the trap of voting for more of the same masquerading as something new and different. If you do, those who only want to use you will win.

I've come to the conclusion that voting is worthless. You are only picking the which criminal will rule over you and interfere in your life. By not voting, you are not giving legitimacy to whoever wins.
ReplyDeleteI think you have come to a wise conclusion.
ReplyDeleteI just had this vision of a land where millions of ordinary people picketed the polling places, protesting against the fraud that is "democracy" and demanding their liberty. Then the vision faded.
ReplyDeleteAs long as hundreds of millions of people think that "caring" and "doing something" means voting, that scenario won't come to pass. But we may be able to change that deluded way of thinking. Right?
ReplyDeleteWell, we can be sure that however we act on election day will be related to some generalization the media has applied to the "young voters."
ReplyDeleteAs a young strategic non-voter (I don't think voting is immoral, just bad strategy), I say:
Don't change the establishment - destroy it! No hope for the empire! Displace government and dismantle coercion!
And of course, mock teh vote!
I think this is a quote from someone "well known" but cannot recall who. "If voting actualy did anything, it would be made illegal." I could be wrong but either way it rings true. Also, for those jackasses who claim that by NOT voting you have no right to complain, I would like them to see George Carlin's remarks "...you voted for them, I didnt so I can complain all I want" or something to that extent.
