Cost of living is up. Paychecks are not. And workers are not OK.

MODERATORS
I mostly agree with you. My point was, I think you get a pass if you're a wage slave. Some people work 12+ hours a day and have a hard time making time for anything outside of their hardcore work schedules. There's a level of poverty that is basically crippling. People in that situation shouldn't be looked down on because they don't have the privilege to participate in things that don't really benefit them anyways.
I completely agree that, if you don't vote, you don't get to complain. That goes for the group I mentioned above as well.
