Oh we have them, some have even tried to get into power and some, like Turncoat, succeeded for a time. most of our billionaires are content to make money and leave decision making to others

The dufus scammed enough, and to be honest Hillary had enough haters to either vote against her in KEY places, or >SHUDDER< people just didn't vote. Either way he got us! We can correct that mistake soon though.

Voting doesn't always mean you get the result you want, if people arn't interested maybe you are better off without them

It's one thing to choose not to vote, it's another to make laws that cancel your right to vote.

This is what comes of living in a "democracy", but wait, you don't live in a "democracy" you live in a constitutional republic

Nice try but the cited difference apply to both your examples and even for whatever you call your democracy.

our democracy demands your vote, it is a commonwealth and for that to be true the opinion of every person is heard even if it is to scribble none of the above on the ballot. Since everyone must exercise the vote great care is taken to ensure everyone has the opportunity. It is mandated and enforced federally, something you could learn from a true democracy

I can get with the great care to ensure everyone has an opportunity stuff.
