Palatinate Online » Article » Debate: Is it worth voting at the general election? (No): "One should never forget that elections always result – whoever the winners and losers are – with pseudo-democracy. Democracy is a masquerade



because, in practice, our representatives are not really chosen by the people, and are certainly not the best of our people."



On the same site there's an article arguing the opposite side of our debate! have a look!

There's a general election in Britain on May 7th...  Is voting worth it???



I thought you might enjoy this... Just before your Rose presentations and your vacations!
