Decreasing the number of people that participate in our "democratic" system
will help expose it for the sham it is.

<p><br>The whole myth of American democracy depends on people participating
in it. If the majority of people decided that they didn't like this
system and therefore refused to participate, the myth would be shattered.

<p>"The essential difference between a monarchy and a democratic republic
is reduced to the following: In a monarchy, the bureaucratic world oppresses
and plunders the people for the greater benefit of the privileged propertied
classes as well as for its own benefit, and all that is done in the name
of the monarch; in a republic, the same bureaucracy does exactly the same
thing, but in the name of the will of the people." -- Mikhail Bakunin,
