I just had a dialogue with my cousin and I told him I don't vote

because I believe my vote doesn't count and the presidents are just puppets. I also told him I believe the world is control by a few wealthy people, he just told me about some bullshit rag to rich stories to debunk my stance and that the the wealthiest people that own capital in the world. I just had to say that I didn't know if this elite global conquers were military, finance, or political figures.

opportunities are everywhere. you have to get living and experiencing the chances you have available. don't just be negative and cheat yourself away from them. Get Living and then your eyes and mind will eventually see some chances.

What about local politics? Don't you believe your vote counts in your town, your school board, county, state? Yes there is a process for the Presidency and with the electoral college you can feel so far removed but by not voting you're disregarding where your vote can immediately impact you.

Well I don't think is going to impact me since I'm poor.

@PsychoMantis: hmmm, well that's probably incorrect but I don't know what's on the ballot

You're only partially right. You don't change the system by voting. You change the manager. And some managers are better than others.

Well I still don't vote.
