i am a registered voter, and i haven't exercised my voting rights ever since. the reason? i don't have the courage to choose among evils. if you were suppose to be deep-fried alive, which would you want? boiling quagmire? steaming shit? or scalding sulfur? all the same.
i don't vote because i don't want to be a piece of raison d'être who seat in our administration. because if i vote for somebody who ends up doing the unpleasant, i'm taking part of the responsibility why we have that person in reign. anyway in the ideal situation, not voting would not affect the outcome.
amidst the political crisis we have now; the broadband issue, setting estrada free, glorietta bombing, and cash-giving among governors, even with closed eyes and half-awake, one would surmise that we are indeed in an unscrupulous governance. voting is not about voting your tv idol, nor voting for the sake of having voted.
god, save the philippines.
