Which to me is silly, voting takes less then an hour of your life, and its the one right that your guaranteed in this society, the right to select your government.
I've always said the same thing, if you can't make time to vote then shut the hell up about your taxes, or laws, or the way your city is designed, or your country is run. You gave up your right to complain when you couldn't be bothered to take place in the process.
