Becuase people like to blame others for their failure, like religious people who say it isn't God's plan when they fail. Blame yourself, and since i voted, i feel as though i am allowed to Blame Bush, especially since i am a disabled Vet who fought in his Bogus war!

Unknown !! It irks me at times... I have a local bar I frequent here in California. The owner is a great gal, but LOVES to rant and rave against all things Republican.
Back in November of 2004, I asked her how she had voted... she said she HADN'T !! She has never even registered !!
I then did a quick poll of my friends and customers... less than 50% of these folks had voted... and 25% were not registered.
If ya don't vote... don't complain.
I've voted in EVERY election since my 18th birthday... often having to hunt down my absentee ballot during my 15 yrs of Naval Service. Even if it was just for City Council.

Cause they can not get organized for 1 common goal, rule & control by the legal majority stating with Money/Power/Wealth! Instead thier conquered & divided "fighting amoung themselves pointlessly etc." Many realize the Voting/political process is totally corrupt & think partaking just makes you out a bigger fool cause you believe it has an effect on the results! We have never had a legitimate or iron clad verifiable system in history, "What Democracy?" Voting the past 34 years this country sucks we have to many bums not willing to put out organized effort & rewrite the constitution throw-out Representative Government and free ride government jobs, positions, entities & organizations etc!

opinions are like @s$ holes, everyone has one. You are right- people who did not vote should not complain about the government

Because it is easier to sit on your butt and complain, than it is to go out and try to make a difference.

Because alot of people were kept from voting. Do your research. This past election, despite its victories, had alot of failures in the system. THere were alot of people who were kept from voting because of little mishaps that they had no control over.
