Study: Congress literally doesn’t care what you think. The preferences of the average American appear to have only a miniscule, near-zero, statistically non-significant impact upon public policy.

      The fact that I’m 100% confident this will never happen, and absolutely needs to, convinced me to leave the states.

        It’s been gaining in popularity among Democrats, but I can’t fault you for not holding your breath.

            Idk why you’re being downvoted for this. You’re required to file with the IRS if you live and work abroad, you absolutely should be voting.

              We are cosmic beings of chaos at the infinite center of creation. Anyone who thinks we should care about a few grumpy clicks ought to be sold to a cat food company.

        The only thing both parties agree on is that rank or star voting is bad for them.
