Honestly, I vote for 2 reasons these days.

 

One, because if I don't then I can't complain about who is in office. As ridiculous as that sounds. I hate it when people complain and when I've asked them who they voted for and they said they didn't.... Well, if you didn't participate then shut up. JMHO

 

Two, too many Troops in our history have sacrificed too much for me not to. I may not totally agree with the wars this country has been involved in since WW2, but the sacrifices were made nonetheless. As a veteran myself and the daughter, sister, granddaughter. daughter-in-law and niece of (war) veterans I don't take that lightly. 

 

Other than these reasons, I just don't see the point. Regardless of who is in office, it's all circling the drain, and nothing short of a MAJOR incident happening is going to change it. Corporations, dirty lobbyists, no term limits and greed have ruined politicians and our government.
