82. No. Because we have people like Bernie Sanders who want us to stay involved.

The guy has been fighting his whole adult life to make things better. You like him as I do. I guess you might be a modern day nihilist. I don't know what outcome you foresee.

I'll stick with Bernie's thinking and try to make things better within the system that exist. After all, the right wing twisted a good system. I think it's our job to get rid of them, not us.
