If the system is so corrupt that voting is completely useless (like some are saying) then why not start a revolution, overthrow the current regime and implement a new system? Thinking

Quote:"We hold these truths to be sacred & undeniable; that all men are created equal & independent, that from that equal creation they derive rights inherent & inalienable, among which are the preservation of life, & liberty, & the pursuit of happiness; ..." - Thomas Jefferson (original draft of the Declaration of Independence).
Not to mention that the quote is full of complete utter bullshit that remains to be proven, I see no reason to hold it as being the truth because it's based merely on classic liberalism and its principles.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
