Oh Yippee! Get Election Fever

The only disease that may be more beneficial to government than swine flu

So the general election has finally been declared.

(I think I'm going to throw up...)

Here are the top 10 election myths that you will be bombarded with:

1. Good citizens vote.
2. If you don't vote, don't complain.
3. Voting makes the government accountable.
4. People who don't vote are lazy and do not care.
5. People who do vote are more 'informed' and 'involved'.
6. There is a significant difference between the major parties.
7. Anyone can become Prime Minister.
8. The major events of the election campaign have not already been scripted.
9. If all the major candidates agree on an issue, it's because they are all correct.
10. Voting is the hallmark of a free society.

And once one of these suited turds, probably the one in the middle, has been declared fake ruler for the next five years, how is anything going to be different?

The usurious basterds running the banking system still rule. The EU makes the majority of our new laws without any Parliamentary input whatsoever. The war will continue. The economic pillaging will intensify. The police state will creep onwards. In fact, once the dust has settled, people may find that very little at all has indeed Changed, except that the media had something else to distract you with for a month or so. But hey, we had a great debate about the candidates' wives, didn't we?

Real change will happen when people stop recognising the authority of these cretins, rather than offering consent to the system in the form of a ballot paper. Did you know that around 40 percent of eligible voters did not vote in the last two general elections? (see link above) Surely they can't all be lazy or ignorant?

Democracy fixes your attention on them, and power flows where attention goes. Look away and they fall, it's that simple.
