Voting: Epic Fail
"Let's get out and vote, let's make our voices heard!
We've been given a right to choose between a douche and a turd!
It's democracy in action, let's put our voices to the test!
A big fat turd or a stupid douche, which do you like best?!"
-South Park, episode 119
Voting is like gambling: the house always wins. When you vote, you are saying to the government that you will accept the outcome of popular opinion, even if that outcome is not what you voted for.
Furthermore, when you vote, you are telling your fellow human beings that you want to force your choice of leader onto them. You are telling your neighbors that you believe in a monopoly of rule and that you want them to live under your choice of master. One size does not fit all, and we all know that monopolies are bad, so why do we insist on having a mental blank out every November and cast our votes for which monopoly of rule we prefer?
Not to mention that the quality of candidates is always abysmal. It is akin to choosing between an excrement sandwich or a femenine hygiene product, as so eloquently explained by Trey Parker and Matt Stone in their Emmy Award winning show, South Park.
