Your vote only matters if politicians are working for you the people. If your politicians nolonger represent the will of the people then you vote is worthless.

Currently our govt is mostly working for large corporations and special interest. The govt has to fear the people for democracy to work. Currently the govt does not fear the people and ingores their will.

You deserve only the rights you are willing to fight for and its coming time we will have to fight or deserve nothing.. People have become far to complacent in this country and our govt has taken advantage.

You dont have to overthrow govts, such as ours, we have good systems set in place. We just have to put the fear of the people in to their corrupted little hearts.

OWS was a good example of putting a little fear in their hearts, but due to that movement having unreasonable demands and no real leadership it was easy for the govt to strangle...

We need another OWS like movement with clear reasonable goals and solid leadership to force those goals into action.
