Why do people who feel like they have no voice not use the ONE little one they DO have?

I'm so tired of people paying no attention to what's going on in the world then condemning ONE thing they heard on the local news. They have no context for it and don't know what it means but WOW are they mad!

Then .. they have a chance to vote and they say, "I don't vote and I never will!" as though voting is a bad thing that means you are participating in politics. It's THEIR government and many of them are dependent on it.

I think it's fear based like most things that grow out of ignorance. Sometimes its probably even as basic as not knowing how to fill out a ballot and not wanting to admit they're never done it before .. so they never start. HUGE SIGH!
