Voting: It’s Important
Peter Schultz
Voting is important as it indicates what the American people approve of. So here are some of the things your vote legitimized if you voted in the mid-term elections in 2022:
A humongous “defense” budget.
A proxy war against Russia in Ukraine
Proxy and direct military action in Syria
Proxy and direct military action in Africa and the Middle East
No universal health insurance
Hundreds of military bases world-wide
Continued sanctions against Cuba
No deal with Iran regarding Iran’s development of nuclear weapons
Continued mass incarceration
Weaponizing space
Pursuit of full spectrum dominance
Billions of dollars of weapons sales world-wide
Supporting Taiwan against Chinese aggression
Checking alleged Chinese aggression
These are just some of things your vote indicated you approved of when you voted in the 2022 mid-term elections. The neat thing is: This is true whether you voted for Republican, Democratic, or some combination the two!
At first glance, I thought this was a poem. The slight indentation of the line "No universal health insurance" seemed a nice touch to set it apart from the others as the only humanizing detail. The list makes me wonder whether anything would have been better had Trump been re-elected. I find that hard to believe...
