RE: Voting happens every 3-5 years - life happens every day

in #freedom8 years ago (edited)

Interesting view on the topic but I do not fully agree with the implications. I encourage people to go to the votings but I am also kind of the person who lost hope in the representative democracy that we face today. But it has features that allow us changes so the part with representative could be modified. Long story short: when you dont want to vote for a party - its okey. I couldnt recommend you any. But i suggest: go vote and do something to invalidate the bill. Draw a penis or something. The reasoning is easy: the voted representatives tend to see non voting as a sign of approval. If 40% of the population doesnt seem to care about changing the rules - then the rules seem fine. To invalidate the bill meens to be seen in the statistics. It means: you care but everyone on the bill sucks. The best way to demand a negative voting system - if your state doesnt allready have one. If it does - go vote and vote against all. until we have the kind of participation and political reasoning that can fill in this heavy word democracy
