25. The ideological straight jacket...

...is the reason 100,000,000 citizens didn't bother to vote.

Neither Party wants to change the status quo. Both Parties and the Corporations that OWN them are perfectly happy to limit the Political discussion to :

Who does or doesn't get an abortion,
Who does or doesn't get to have a gun,
who does or doesn't get married.

God forbid someone like Dean or Kucinich or Sharpton starts talking OUTSIDE the box. Both of the establishment Parties joined forces to shut them up.
I'm sick of it!
