We have yet another example of the conservatives having only short term gain and quick profits on their mind. Turner and the liberals were right when they said that we have been building this country east to west for a century plus, and that we should have continued doing so. And now we are seeing Turner's predictions coming true, and a conservative sold us the fuck out and took the easy way Instead of nation building.

there still is validity for voting for the lesser of two bad options

Man... we've been doing this for decades. Where did that get us?

Better than voting for the greater of two bad options. What needs to be done is change the system to allow good options more easily, but in the mean time letting the worst options run amok isn't going to help anything.

This problem can't be solved by voting alone, but not voting will make it worse.

Amen brother. That's the real source of the problem right there.
