    True. Such a system shouldn’t be maintained, and we have the right to demand better. HOW is opting out of the democratic process going to do that? (Not rhetorical; please answer this)

    Whether you like it or not, It WILL be maintained, at least in the near term. Change is slow. But Trump WILL be the replacement if your plan of apathy prevails. It really is that simple.

      I’ve voted in every single election since turning 18 and have always voted Dem. So have many of my friends and family.

      And yet here we are.

      People don’t believe in our system because our system has produced terrible results. Especially when compared to countries that have produced consistently higher standards of living in our lifetimes like Norway or Denmark. Or even Germany.

        You didn’t answer my question. What. Does. Apathy. Do.

          Why are you accusing me of apathy, when I just told you that I voted for Dems in every election that I’ve ever been eligible to vote in?
