Vote for the least bad
Much has been said about the importance of voting, and that people who don't vote for this and that, but behind this there are reasons, perhaps some of these may be due to laziness. However, one of the reasons that stands out the most is “why am I going to vote, if the same always come out”.
In a representative democracy you vote, as its name says, for someone who represents the others, as many as their interests, their ideals, etc. But sometimes there are no options that represent the ideals of certain people, so you end up voting for the one who fulfills them in his mayoeira, in translation, "the least bad"
This lack of representation occurs due to mistrust, at the time of choosing, that certain political figures have generated, with their cases of corruption or by the mere fact of not fully complying with their government program.
People are tired of the programs being, in summary, a brainstorming session that the rulers never get to realize. Being once again victims of blatant populism.
The way to change this is for someone to show us the opposite, a government that does not end up being the same as the rest, the problem is that people want those changes now, and on the one hand it is understandable since most have been waiting 30 years for the joy that was promised to them.
Hello Diego! I totally share your opinion. However, I believe that the democratic vote is the foundation of society, and that there is no excuse for not voting for the most representative candidate.
ResponderEliminarHello Diego, I think that your opinion is very accurate, but there is a specific point in which I absolutely agree with you, wich has to do with desesperate people that wants everything right now or the solutions of all the problems in a few months of government. I think that all the problems and bad public policies of the past cannot be changed even in ten years, because it is a process that needs structural transformations, not just bills or simply ideas of a better country. In short, I think it is a difficult subject.

ResponderEliminarHi Diego, totally agree. It is true that people are bored of always going to vote and never really getting a good mandate. As you say you always see the same faces, people whose track record is already known, all have made failures, leaving people with few options to choose from.
Hi Diego, I find it interesting the way you expressed the idea of "why am I going to vote, if the same people always come out", it is a reality that we live as a country and I think that another way to solve it is to create assemblies constantly. In them you can teach people and help them with their decisions.

ResponderEliminarHello Diego, I totally agree with you. Although voting is important, the people who don't do it are because no political project moves them. The criticism here should be for those who make politics and do not call people to vote.
hello diego, I totally agree with your comment. In the last few years it has been demonstrated that the traditional representation system is in crisis because people are tired of being promised things and not fulfilled
ResponderEliminarHello Diego,
ResponderEliminarAlthough what you say is mostly true and I agree with many aspects of your opinion, I think that against the lack of responsibility of many politicians (or the political class in general), we as the people need to attend on that missings needs that are caused because of those who fail their compromise to society via politics instead of waiting for a person that, in reality, only has to do the appropriate job.
