exercise the right to vote

A privilege is to drive, a right is to vote, and freedom is to obey the laws.

I sent my vote the other day. After I received it last week, I had to study every questions, know every candidate to make sure that my vote will represent what I believe to be consistent with my values and my principles.

I am a democrat, always have been and perhaps for a very long time but recently, my candidate and my representation seem to have been distorted in terms of the constitution and my principles.

I don't have to go into details as to my disappointments and frustrations on how the present leadership has transformed my trust and confidence into an array of disillusions and frustrations.

And the worst part is that, it seems there is nothing I can do about it now than to accept the way it is and wait until the term is over. Grrr... how terribly disappointing that is.

So the point of this blog is that I had to study every questions that were asked if I would have to agree and or disagree.

One particular question that was asked of me in the ballot is that "DOCTORS SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO SCREENING FOR DRUGS OR ILLEGAL SUBSTANCE" before they start their duty.

Why? Hmmnn let me see, so if they are held incompetent and or lacking of full attention to the execution of their job, they would be liable for violation of law and therefore lost their freedom?

Like killing their patient due to influence of illegal substance? I wonder how many were found dead or damaged because of such a lack of practice? I thought of so many questions after reading this.

Anyways, It is a right to vote and I know damn well how much my voice will be heard? Really?

I know it is a privilege to drive and can be revoked anytime I am questionably a hazard to other motorist. They will yank your license anytime the authorities want to.

What about freedom? Hmmmnn you have to obey the laws so us not to go to jail, unless of course you are not caught and there is not enough evidence to convict you.

PLEASE GO AND CAST YOUR VOTE? thanks all for your reads and comment.

Note: DO YOU BELIEVE YOUR VOTE COUNTS? IF NOT WHY? Does your country believe in election? Would you recommend if it weren't practicing it?

Thanks again.

Have a nice day/evening/night to everyone.
