Go ahead and let other people tell you what to do and run your life. No? Don’t want to? A whole bunch of people are doing just that. Look at these figures:
- One in five U.S. eligible voters is not registered to vote.
- 40 percent of eligible voters did not vote in the 2016 election.
If you fall into one of those two groups, you are letting others make big decisions for you–like taxes, healthcare, housing, citizenship, transportation costs, and who represents (or fails to represent) you.
Every vote does matter, because each one adds to another which adds to another…. Coming up shortly, SOMEONE will decide many major issues. There are 435 House seats and 35 Senate seats to be decided, plus governors, school boards, city councils, district attorneys, and judges in YOUR state and city.
I ask Are you registered and will you vote? If not, you can’t complain when people are elected and laws enacted that make your life miserable.
Think about it.
