What's the goddam point of living in America if you don't want to vote?
People these days have really been irritating me with their answers of "I don't know" or "I don't care" or "I just don't feel like it." Some people say that they're still too young..WHAT? You know there's a reason they passed that law that 18 year olds could vote. How could you call yourself an American and not vote? What are you doing here?
This is speaking ESPECIALLY to those of you who were born here. You know how lucky you were to have been born into this country? You know how easy we've got it in America? Some people fail to appreciate the fact that we're living in luxury compared to some countries that are living to just to stay alive. They've got nothing else. We've got everything.
If you don't choose to vote don't complain about how expensive gas is, how much tuition is going up in schools, even how stupid you think Bush is, the truth is,most people don't even know what's going on in the world, sure you catch a glimpse of the news and painfully observe Bush's terrible speaking and watch him send more American troops to death but how can you complain if you're not trying to do anything about it? Honestly, I haven't been met one person who's been able to carry a decent conversation about politics or world issues. I know that politics is one of those things you shouldn't talk about with people, but it's what's going on in the world YOU live in. It matters.
Well to the people that are already registered and ready to go..good for you! And for others that are not...*sigh..I've told you what is true, and really it's your life, however if you've changed your mind, you can register here. :)
