Would I vote for Hillary…No, Hell No
Technorati Tags: drugs, elections, FDA, hillary, lawers, RIAA, snakesI think that they should all rot in hell. The US government needs to give the power back to the people and take it away from the corporations. It is like having a parent tell a child I know what you want and even if you don’t like what I give you, will will take it any way. I’m sorry but my asshole is a little sore from todays government.
if you look at it in a broad prospective, you have major corps sewing to get privet information and then dropping the lawsuit after the information is obtained, and then sewing the individual, look at how the RIAA practices law. Other places do the same thing, judgments are brought against you with out you even being able to defend yourself or getting notified of a move in court dates. That is just where people with out money get screwed.
Our SS and other things need to be done away with like welfare. People have lived long enough off of the working class in the country, it is time that they pay either own dues, and get rid of the government funded crap. Make people responcible for their actions and their life, force them to decide what they should do instead of looking to the government for an answer. Stop people from being government dependent, that is a co-attendance, and we all know that those are unhealthy.
We need to stop saying no to drugs. This is a really bad mixed message. Say no to Drugs means the selective crap that they don’t want you to have, but the then turn around and want you to take this pill for depression, or ADD, or ADHD, or RLS, and the list goes on and own. The US government have made themselves legal drug dealers, and it needs to stop. They have harmed more people with their push for designer drugs than people smoking pot for 25 years.
Where does the US draw the line? I am just not voting. Even if I don’t vote it is still a Vote, So I am voting for no one. No one is good enough and down to earth enough for me to spend my time punching a hole with their name beside it. May the all crawl back in to the snake holes, they call law offices, and rot there.

Hi, I came over from Blog Catalog. This is a very well written piece.
I am just not voting.
I think that’s a mistake. The problem, as I see it, is that too many people ignore their right to vote and so the minority actually wins. When only 30% of registered voters turn out at the polls and 75% of those are staunch Bush supporters (for instance) then Bush wins.
I don’t like many of the present crop of candidates, but I’ve chosen one that I think will make an impact and who’s views I can trust. Whether he wins the primary or not doesn’t even matter to me. I’m going to write his name on the ballot. I want my vote to say “Corporations don’t get to decide my candidate anymore”. If I don’t do that then they win again. You know?
Also, if your state has instituted electronic voting, I suggest you vote absentee ballot. It’s a safer way to go.
Thanks.

I agree the writing the name in. I just really don’t like any of them. We really need to reform the way things are done and who controls what. There is way to much money involved now, people paying off others and wanting kick backs in return.
If I ran, I wouldn’t be able to because of the cost of traveling today and the cost to even say that you are running in each state, I really wouldn’t care if Microsoft or Exxon donated for campaign cost. I would hope that I would still try and have a broad prospective on the impact that my choice would make.
They also need to stop this putting other things in bills. Break the bills down and vote on each part. That way more things get in that need to be in and less of the stuff that doesn’t.

OK If you don’t vote, then you have no right to bitch. Your not a fan of any of them? Fine then go and vote but don’t pick one of them. Hell for that matter write in someone. If your not happy with the system then go and vote. If you want laws changed then call or write your congressman. But to say “I am just not voting” doesn’t solve anything. For that matter it makes it worse. As for the laws being sppprate, that can never happen because not every person can agree on everything. If that was how it was done then nothing would ever get through congress. Anyways I hope you change your mind and pick a person or nobody, and go and cast that vote.

Ok if i have a Water Bill for the Mississippi river that will help out 20 million Americans and publicly state so. Then when I go to have the bill put together and have it voted on, put I put in funding for my states road ways as well, because I think that my state needs new roads and it will help me with my election next term. That is not right. Even more so it is not right to have the water bill at 200 million $$s and the road portion of that bill for 1 billion dollars, even more so if it is in another state that doesn’t touch the Mississippi River banks. That is what I’m talking about. Not the Water Bill that contains 25 items about just the Mississippi River. If it contained all about what the bill was for then great. Just to many dirty underhanded people out there.
you can buy my vote if you make sure that you include 10 billion dollars to fund building 20 golf courses and Malls in my state, I will make sure that I vote in your favor. That is what is happening and that is what i’m calling “bull shit” on.

Thats fine to call bullshit, but it isn’t fine to think that not voting for the elected officals is the way to solve it. By you not voting your only helping the rich companies out. Then they have less people voting agnist their paid off running man. I do hope you change your mind and vote everytime you can and on every item you can. That is the one right that sets us apart from so many other countires.

you know. some times the best way to stop a system with none violence is to do nothing. If everyone said, I don’t like none of these people and i’m not going to vote, what do you think would happen.
If no one person showed up to the polls to vote, what then. What would happen is the electoral process would still take place. Even if everyone person that could vote, voted for Bush, the electoral college could still vote Clinton. This to my knowledge has not happened yet. Yet this is another thing that needs to be changed. The reasons for the electoral college no longer apply today.
So you tell me what you think would happen if every single single person didn’t vote. the exercised their right to protest with silence. How loud do you think that you would be. Would a point be made, or do you feel that they would elect someone anyway and not care what the people had to say? I guess it would show our governments true colors towards the people.
A free country doesn’t have elected Dictators that control with a military force. The US has been this way from the 60’s. I think the government showed its colors then, and people today are to afraid to do so now. That and if I took 6 months off of work to protest something I would be fired, because the corporations don’t care about your belief in the US. You can’t live without food today, you will go to jail for shooting a rabbit out of season.

oh gosh, i don’t even know where to start commenting here.
voting isn’t a case of non-violence versus violence, and sitting out is not going to do a damn bit of good. you just go let all the white middle-aged republicans make your decisions for you when you don’t vote. go out there, do the fucking research, and find someone who stands for what you believe in. the people are out there - you have to find them.
regarding the government’s “true colors towards the people” - the people let the government control them. thomas jefferson is quoted as saying (and no this is not verbatim) that every country should expect an uprising at least every two hundred years. the result would be a change in government that better represents the people. well, we haven’t had one yet and i personally don’t foresee one any time in the near future. why? because let’s be honest here. you can bitch and complain all you want to about the government keeping people down, doing this and that wrong, the corporations running the world (it’s called capitalism - get used to it), etc etc. however, you still live in the most comfortable nation there is. if you don’t like it, either vote to help change it or move. i hear they speak english in great britain.
and you’re actually incorrect about the electoral college. the electoral college has to go with the majority in their state. what CAN happen is that the majority of people on a nation-wide scale vote for one person and the other person wins due to the electoral college process, but those electorates can’t just decide to vote any way they want to.
a free country doesn’t have “dictators” period. we voted the guy into the office. there are other sectors of the government perfectly capable of stopping his current control of the military force. they have not yet done so. the people of the country have not done much about it, either. gosh - you know, that might all change if people started doing their research and voting for better representation.

@chicky
I’m not so much bitching and complaining as I am being truthful. You saw or know about the US government taking thousands to jail during the 60’s. The government didn’t listen to the people then and they don’t do it now. Nothing has changed with everyone else in the US voting. Between the corruption of the media, and news sources, it is extremely hard to know fact from fiction. Research is crap, if the facts that you read are not facts at all. It still remains that you really only know things if you were there. In some cases you can’t believe your eye and ears either.
The rest of this response to everyone was posted here.
