Why Vote?

why are our tax dollars being spent on crippled and paralyzed drug hoods? why are we supporting teenage girl having babies and not trying to do any good? how Is It possible for foreigners to get supplemental security income? and where Is all the money supposedly coming from? yet, when we the American citizens who have worked and struggled all our lives attempt to get any assistance from the government we only get a lot of bull and some jive what in the world could the politicians have been thinking about? when we have families right here in America having to do without Is It political policy over social responsibility? the American Government aspires to be the world's police force by deploying our young men and women into war zones without any recourse but who Is to blame for making all these life altering decisions? It's not those who don't vote for they have no voice nor position now Is the time for all Americans to step up to the plate make your voice and choice be known before It's too late we need to stop this madness and unnecessary spending call the politicians on to the carpet and bring about some ending Is It political corruption versus social reconstruction? so just get out and vote and make your choice be known put who you want in positions of power with ideals like your own It's time to take a stance and get back our power be more socially and politically conscious at the voting hour
