Ah, back to your normal programming. Phew, that was a close call. Too many do not vote.. It should be a CRIME not to vote.. PERIOD.. very few extenuating circumstances that I can envision.. like the limit of 1/x as x approaches infinity :))

When I call myself Liberal.. it is in the Libertarian sense.. Not hurting anyone/anything else.. Have at it man..




Tsk tsk BS. A crime? Should we punish them with execution or just take all their money or gaol them? You should check a dictionary to see what "Libertarian" means. Hint, it is a bit to do with not hurting anyone else.

Voting is absurd though I'm guilty of it many times. The mathematics are that the votes don't matter. If somebody doesn't vote, the probability of it having any effect is millions to 1. It's not worth the time of day.

Even in a super marginal seat in a first past the post system, it's still not worth voting because the chance of having an effect is very small.

But even if your vote does have an effect, how is it criminal to not vote? Sessions recused himself and didn't go to gaol or jail. An FTC commissioner recused over Qualcomm's trial and now bloody Lucy Koh is giving away Qualcomm's intellectual property to Huawei and Samsung [might be worth asking the FBI to investigate her links to foreign powers and have a look at her bank account too - makes more sense than a FISA warrant to spy on Carter Page and candidate Trump and president-elect Trump and president Trump].

I miss Elroy. And ElMat. An official China government publication will be very boring. Alex can be banned.
