 Voting is still a scam, there is a flaw in your reasoning. It's like saying: Poverty is a real problem. People die because of poverty, so I HAVE TO play the lottery to get rich. 

Yes, politics is a real problem, but voting is not a real solution. It only enhances the political class, legitimises their authority while making you powerless (hope for others to solve your problems) and complicit (you play the game that authorises them to steal and kill).

Fiat and debt are the fundamental problems for clown world. Believe me, the fiat world will try to stay alive under both the 
Democrats AND the Republicans. You'll get the same shit in another package, because Trump will face the same incentives (that's why he didn't do anything last time). People will still be murdered, but now you are complicit because you voted for the murderer.

Election is a schitcoin, amazing that a maxi like you falls for it

 This is a helluva discussion. Both candidates want to send our tax dollars abroad to fund foreign wars. I’m ready for infrastructure activism, make our roads smooth and pristine, reinvest in neighborhoods, support american businesses and just upgrade our systems. We have projects to focus on here, let other countries fund their own wars. 
I don’t feel right voting for any of the two choices.
