"Actually, each individual who votes plays only a microscopic part in =
the
result of the election. So you really can't fault people for the way =
they
vote; the amount of responsibility each one carries is vanishingly =
small."
---------------

Actually, representative government, parliaments, and voting in general =
is simply the most effective method yet devised for the ruling class to =
gain the consent of the governed. This was very clear when Kings first =
instituted parliaments, dumas, assemblies, etc., but no less true today. =
Democracy of all sorts are frauds and are meant to be! Democracy =
prevents evolution toward anarcho-capitalism.
