We need to wake up and pay attention to what is happening/going on around us.

Hear hear LJ trouble is what does one do about it?? We live in times of rhetoric and arrogance on the part of those who purport they are doing what they do for the common good.
It is especially galling when one also knows the ballot system is already rigged in favour of those who we really don't want or need in government. It will never be fair all the time the sun shines on this planet.
But I digress

What does one do about it?
Well, what I do is...I don't vote.
...and when people say to me, I have no right to speak/complain about politics because you didn't 'VOTE'
...I speak louder.
I digress.

I still vote but it keeps getting harder and harder when the choices have gone from between Dumb and Dumber to between Dumbest and Dumbest. The last election was the worst when several offices had only one candidate running and I didn't like her or him. Those I didn't vote for.
