- Do you vote for a set of outcomes that you believe will be best for the country / Province / city
And if you vote based on the first do you believe it facilities the second and if you vote for the second are you actually still voting in self interest because creating the best country will create opportunity for you and a better place to live which is ultimately self serving.
