Why? I don't hold folks who need help as the enemy. Some need a hand up. The ones who sit and take are a different story though. How do you separate em?

You don't vote? You are part of the problem then. I know the non voters claim as you do..............all BS. Go talk to the folks running and see where they stand. Do you do that? Well hell I used too so am baking up a tree..........lol

again, you didn't read the interaction. I said that the elderly, people with physical and mental disabilities deserved anything they wanted. I said healthy people in their prime deserved nothing. I have voted in my life. it's a waste of time. I live in MD, which means I will always lose.

I will admit voting has become a nothing thing. Hell even in my locale it is moot. I still do it though. My duty as a citizen. I don't hold anything against those that don't as it is almost a waste of time anymore as the crooks always win................they are all crooks. sadly

The healthy folks are the ones who should be saving us. Sadly their heads are too stuck in their cell phones to notice what is going on. Soon voting will be on the cell phones. So we go into the greatness of technology. IMO it's all pathetic.

Yeah it's probably heading that way. I mean, GOD forbid that one has to get up off of their a** and exercise their voting privilege.

I understand why you say voting in MD is a waste of time but how many other people think the same thing. I also live in a state that the cities and people who "can't" get a voter ID wipe out my vote but we have surprised politicians and have been known to go red in the past. I do vote for that reason.
