Should I re-enrol to vote?
I dropped off the list when I moved interstate about 15 years ago.
In that time I have not felt the urge or been inspired to re-enrol to vote for any of the candidates based on (some of) their policies or personalities.
I have also learned that even if I was to vote for a certain party or leader who I want to represent this great country , there is every chance they will be overturned and some other clown will take over.
In a recent discussion I was told that I don't really have the right to complain if I don't vote , and I tend to agree to some extent.
I fully understand that every vote counts.
I love this country , but I am not impressed at all with what I have seen in politics since the election has been announced.
I still feel some of the things that will really make a difference to this country are being overlooked , and these fools who are asking me to vote for them are so far out of touch with society and reality its not funny.
Do I re-enrol and vote for a party and leader who I think "will do"? Enrol and vote for one of the minor parties who don't have a hoping hell of getting enough votes or do I continue on through life - caring but not voting,, winging,, handing over my taxes and watching these clowns make idiots out of each other?
I would really like to make a difference but cant help feeling I would be wasting my time.
