Yes, I voted today in Quebec (real vote day is: .

I know, I know… it’s so not-punk. So not cool. Hip. But yeah, I did it. And I kind of got interested in it for once (I.e.: I didn’t vote for the party who had the funniest name.) But to my dismay… It got me thinking.

Why do we have the right to vote? Let’s see here what Wiki says about it:

Voting is a method of decision making where in a group such as a meeting or an electorate attempts to gauge its opinion—usually as a final step following discussions or debates.

What about democracy? :

The definition of democracy is simple, the rule of the people, but great complexity and diversity has arisen from the varied concepts used at different periods of history and in different situations.

But WHY … Oh why, do we let stupid (mostly un-informed or just too old to be informed) people VOTE! For me, it makes absolutely no sense what-so-ever. It completely makes me sigh in despair. It renders the whole process meaningless. I see what some of you might think “We all have 1 vote, 1 voice, we’re all equal”. Yeah, but what happens when that voice is retarded and has nothing good to say?

Anyways. All this to say two things: I voted for Quebec Solidaire. and I swear to myself, in the upcoming elections: I will be more informed and i’ll be “That guy…” that everybody hates that keep saying “Oh you shouldn’t vote for these guys …”

Btw, I’m sorry for the lack of new stuff and all … I had a huge rush at work (if you’re curious: Babe Tournament) and i’m looking into re-doing the site’s layout.

So cheerios!
