Should I vote?

[HazlittIsLit]

I've always been excited to begin voting for the Libertarian Party, expressing my dissent with the two major-parties. But as my principles are developing and coming together, I worry that voting will express that I do actually consent to being governed, which I don't. This government does not have my consent. I feel like I can't say this whilst actively partaking in the electoral process, which elects people into positions of authority over others.

What do you think?

It depends on how hard you are willing to vote.

If you don't consent, then would you say that the so-called "social contract" is null & void for you? After all, a contract requires consent of all parties for it to be in force.

It doesn't matter if you consent or not, the state is still going to rape you.

I see nothing wrong with self-defense voting. Vote for people who want to take away the power from government.

What do I think ? I have voted for a lot of Libertarians . I think it is time to quit doing that all together . I think they also do not care if they have your consent . To summarize it is probably in your best interest to vote for whoever you think will steal the least from you that actually has a chance to win or buy Oyarde a beer .

I rarely vote for politicians. I believe in voting for someone and there aren't many politicians out there I actually like so I usually skip over those parts. I DO keep my eye on the referendums, though. Even if you chose not to vote for your master, I do think it's important to go to the polls.

I would be interested to hear [MENTION=33245]TheTexan[/MENTION] opinion.

I looked at the Red Dot's and the 'born on date' , you know more about him than I do, but I think
we both figured it out regardless.

Every ballot should have the option, "None of the above." and if that option gets the most votes, that office would be abolished.

Yes, or at least held vacant until such time as an 'electable' candidate surfaces.

Voting is a sacred honor & duty that every American man is born with.

The voting men of this country are the bastion of democracy. We are the ones holding back the tides of chaos and anarchy, which threaten to destroy everything this country stands for. We are the ones upholding honor and justice, protecting the weak from the hordes of marauders who always seek to regain control.

Voting is a gift from God, bestowed and restored to us by our founding fathers, and maintained by the blood and sacrifice of our soldiers and Officers who risk and give their lives to protect this sacred right.

Of course he should vote.

Well, this thread is getting funny now, so I see two questions emerging:


1. Should one vote?
2. Should Hazlit vote?
