Voting: A Masocist's Pursuit

I do happen to be one of those cynical bastards who thinks that voting these days has devolved into a popularity contest among which corporations we want taken care of. It's true. The pricks on the ticket work for the companies that paid a few million for their campaign, not the people whose lives are affected by the laws they pass.

Still, it was not for that reason, but rather a recent move which left my voter registration up in the air. As much as I'd like to have voted today, I didn't have the fifty bucks to hop on a bus back to St. Louis where I am currently registered.

But the fact that I didn't vote isn't going to stop me from bitching about how things turned out.

Suck it.
