system doesn’t work
justifies further lack of
participation

This episode of Cavin and Hobbs so sums up my day.
Sorry and sad to say that one, this was over 30 years ago and two, this is the attitude that the opposition counts on.
Still, it’s worth typing out the text.
When I grow up, I’m not going to read the newspaper and I’m not going to follow complex issues and I’m not going to vote.
That way I can complain that the government doesn’t represent me.
Then, when everything goes down the tubes, I can say the system doesn’t work and justify my further lack of participation.
An ingeniously self-fulfilling plan.
It’s a lot more fun to blame things than to fix them.

BOY, HOWDY!
