Votes dont make any difference, democracy is an illusion, money makes the difference.
From a quote I saw today which encapsulates todays world (and yesterdays)

It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it."
Upton Sinclair

Democracy is evil, just ask our founding fathers. A democracy, the majority aka the zombies, win while the minority gets screwed.

re·pub·lic
riˈpəblik/
noun
noun: republic; plural noun: republics

1.
a state in which supreme power is held by the people and their elected representatives, and which has an elected or nominated president rather than a monarch.

I really get upset when people call our great nation a democracy. The Pledge of Allegiance says, "And to the republic, for which it stands."
