Voting

Voting is our given right,
which men have died to keep.
Voting shows our people's might,
so our country will be free.

But there are those who never vote
and constantly complain.
Patriotism they don't promote;
it's their right to abstain.

Every vote really counts
to let our officials know-
their actions are accountable
or their ratings go down.

So come election time,
go and cast you vote with pride.
Voting doesn't cost a dime,
but the outcome you help decide.

-Bernard Howe




All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.
-Edmund Burke

Communist Karl Marx said-
The first thing necessary to control the people, is to separate them from their heritage.
