I honestly think you should lose your citizenship and be dumped in mexico if you don't vote. Voting is the only thing that matters in a democracy and this country fucking fails at it.

This country fails at being a democracy period. Corporations buy the politicians into office so that they will do their bidding. Anyone who thinks the people have a voice or that politicians represent them are out of their fucking mind.

Read my reply above. Voting is a privilege we choose to exercise if we want to. If I don't know who is running, what platform they have, or anything remotely to do with the race, then it would be not in my best interest to vote because it would not be an informed decision.

Vote for the non-incumbent. Send a message.

what message? that you don't like politics in general? that you'd rather a government like Italy, where you have 54 different governments in 56 years, and can't get a damn thing done?

why vote if all you vote for is what is not currently in power?

Make it a national holiday for everyone to take a day off and vote.
Or make it a 2 or 3 days voting period.

And actually have a practical holiday/day off of value? That's bullsh!t and would be completely contrary to premise of having the day off for MLK's bay, President Day, Good Friday, and Labor Day.
