I've been watching this country slide down the shitter since Nixon.
You'd be fucking amazed what that does to your outlook.
Prior to Nixon, almost nobody was voting with their brains. Do you think JFK would win today with "Ask not what your country can do for you..."? How about the "I like Ike!" campaign? A couple of decades before that, the women didn't vote. Oh, and these populations were all vastly more religious than people have been since Nixon, and vastly more ignorant in general. So if the country has been sliding down the shitter, maybe it isn't that people waste their votes, but that they are so disillusioned with the thugs and ass clowns who are on the ballot that they don't want to vote at all.
Mr. Hanky loves you!
