I did not mean to discourage voting, on the contrary, i think the people who don’t vote are the problem. We have compulsory voting where i live and i think it keeps things a little saner as the parties don’t need to spend so much effort making people angry or afraid enough to be motivated to vote.
While I appreciate the comparison, don’t downtalk voting. Local laws are made and broken by small margins.

I still have a stale taste in my mouth for our conflicting opinions, but I can’t deny a different take on Capitalism from another country.
Edit: though I hope our communication was thoughtful and stimulating in spite of being down-putting.
