Master 112

I get not feeling aligned to anything in our current system, but I personally think it's always worth it to vote for whatever party/individual most closely agrees with your views, or is at least headed in a direction that gets closer to your wishes (even if it's not close at all).

In all fairness, no one is getting what they "want" here. It's just one big compromise. 

@Alflives - huh; I've heard of spoiled ballots, but I didn't know what they were/what purpose they served. Thanks for the information--I appreciate it and will look into it more.

@Jimmy McGill - a lot of my values and views come out of my lived experiences. People are typically very critical of the way I think about politics--but very few of them, I think, can relate to the life I've had. I've been living in Canada my whole life but feel like a foreigner. People for whom the current government/parliamentary/judicial/etc structures work can never well comprehend that they don't work for some people.

@Ceres - you should know after that vigilante shot that I'm an all-or-nothing thinker. :p

I think there are a lot of people who would be disillusioned with the system, particularly health and justice, its just that they haven't experienced it yet. I guess I'm a 'work from within' guy.
