Why Vote

OK I know this is unwanted information. However, remember not voting is still a vote. It can effect an election. If you don't care about what is happening to our economy,if you are not worried about health care( it is so expensive that your place of employment might not give you insurance) if you don't care about Iraq and the possibility of going to war with Iran or Russia, well then don't complain if any of these issues suddenly effect you. I know it is overwhelming and it is hard to know which side to believe, but there is plenty of information on the Internet. Here are some web sites

The bottom line is it is a privilege to be able to vote. I also want to add that if you have children you are a role model for them. Don't you want them to grow up to be good citizens?
