I AM PUZZLED!

I am not really puzzled by the atrocities of governments as it has always been the case one way or another, but by people’s apathy, oblivion, ignorance, and indifference. For instance, in the last election of November 2014, which was considered the most expensive midterm election ever, and with the lowest ratio of participation, Republicans won both houses. This statement by itself proves how vital it is for people to participate. There also were widespread forms of voter suppression, another indicator that if people decide to participate in the election process and vote for alternatives, there is a large chance that they elect right candidates.
