People still believe their vote can lead to change? (McCain, poll, regular)

If a guy showed up at your front door and asked you to choose between being punched in the face or kicked in the groin, would you proudly “participate in the process”? Would you think he was “representing” you as he inflicted upon you whichever act of violence you chose? Would you feel empowered and in charge while casting your vote?
Would you tell your neighbor, “Hey, if you don’t choose between being punched in the face or kicked in the crotch, then you have no right to complain about the outcome!”?
Would you pontificate about how this is what makes your neighborhood great—because you have a “choice”? Would you opine that, “The system isn’t perfect, but it’s the best there is!”?
If you have seen the push back on the anti-establishment, the change is there between the lines.
So much effort to keep the Establishment in power on both sides of the fence, is the rigged game, where no change happens. If you have not figured it out yet, we the people are in bondage to our centralized government. They own us all, if they punish us for not consenting to their power. Is is a top down government. Never intended in this nation when it was founded. The Constitution today, is just art work, with so many changes without amendment, but by legislation.
American citizens votes can't make America perfect, but votes still make a huge difference. Just look at the coming 2016 election.
H. Clinton will raise our national debt to 87% of GDP.
D. Trump will raise our national debt to 127% of GDP.
And in the process of Clinton keeping our debt much lower, she will also spend over $1 trillion dollars on needed infrastructure repairs, improving education, and programs that help regular Americans.
And the 2016 election also decides which Americans will get tax cuts.
Republican Donald Trumps "supply side" tax cuts will give the 20% of Americans making an average of $50,900 per year 8% of his tax cuts, and then give the richest 5% of Americans 51% of the tax cuts. Donald Trump's Tax Plan Would Cost $12 Trillion | CTJReports
In Washington DC its all about the money. And the republicans get 100% of their big money from CEO's and large corporations, but the democrats get $100's of millions of dollars from worker labor unions (from teachers, nurses, plumbers, carpenters, and other regular Americans) And those worker union donations get democrats doing a few good things for regular Americans.

Nope I won't be voting. Our city and county races are over. No demonrat will beat McCain in AZ. My vote wouldn't matter anyway, and rather than vote for the lessor of two evils I choose to abstain. So if either one gets elected it's all YOUR fault.
What I'm wondering is how much will people tolerate before they start casting their votes in 223 caliber?
Kind of a harsh article, but spot on IMO... The whole game is rigged and people keep falling for it.
Indeed......... Its a game to keep the sheep thinking THEY ACTUALLY HAVE ANY SAY!!!!!
They dont...... THE ELITE GET IN WHOEVER THEY WANT.. THE POLL RESULTS DONT MATTER @ ALL!!!!!!
