They have sort of a point, though. Most people, regardless if they're in government or citizens, are complete arseholes.

I always vote even for the minor things.  I don't get my way but I try


 :agreed:

I even voted in the church elections, before leaving the Swedish church last year.

Had me going, esp. this pull quote:

"All the vitriol and partisan bickering in Congress has caused most Americans to form negative opinions of the U.S. government," Pew researcher Amy Ratner said. "However, over the same time period, the government has likewise grown wary of U.S. citizens, largely due to their utter lack of foresight, laziness, and overall incompetence."

I read "their" as the government. Which sounded right to me.  :laugh:
