Hi @neavvy,
Thanks for the memo and also for sending me the link to comment on your fantastic article.
Please pardon me for this delayed response @neavvy.
"Why should we bother about elections?"
Dear friend, please don't mistake me. The moment I read the title, I got angry. First of all, "Elections" holds the magical key to the success of Democracy and please change your opinion towards it for good.
Albeit, we can't expect the magic to happen time and again, it will happen at least once in a while.
But I must admit frankly that recently held general elections in our country were not elections actually, but were "MANIPULections". The ruling party manipulated the results and came to power throwing all the rules and regulations into a dust bin and the respective Election Commission was forced to lick their feet like a faithful dog.
But elections is a most powerful tool and we must exercise our voting power without letting it go waste irrespective of whether it produces positive results or not.
Along with the 3 issues listed by you, there is one more which can't be missed out and that is "Refugee Crisis" because France, Germany, Sweden and UK are the top 4 EU countries, which hosted most of the refugees in the world.
This factor also would have played a major impact influencing the result of the EU elections. Isn't it?
Last but not the least, this is really a great publication by you.

Thank you for your comment dear @marvyinnovation. I really appreciate the fact that you are so supportive.
Well, I didn't mean to say that elections are not important. This title was intended to bring a discussion and maybe elicit people. As I mention in the next sentence:
Wow, that's really sad to hear. Where are you from?
Yes, every citizen of a democratic country should be aware of that fact. There is also some similarity with Steem, isn't it? :)
Thank you, it's really good to hear that you enjoyed it :) Have a nice day!
Hi @neavvy,
Thank you very much for your kind words, but please pardon me for this late response.
"The moment I read the title, I got angry."
Please pardon me again for expressing my opinion rather harshly.
"Wow, that's really sad to hear. Where are you from?"
I am basically from Chennai, India and currently living in Andhra Pradesh, India.
Bye for now, @neavvy.
