But to get voters out to vote for their benifit there has to be a way to get them to the voting booth.
Also people have to understand that the people elected are there to work for them, not for a trickle down theory for example.
How do you make people aware when they are not interested or given up? I think that it requires a commitment from people. Just imagine if everyone convinced another person to vote. No body could then say that we didn't get what we wanted.
Things can turn and it can happen with each individual person taking on a commitment to make democracy work.

Look what Ghandi did or Mother Teressa did starting from the bottom. Each person can make a difference.

Starting to ramble on so will break off for now.
