I disagree, and that was my point. I believe that the financing of the 
country carries with it the ability to complain at whomever the current 
party in power may be. I do vote; if my attitude towards voting were 
apathetic, I wouldn't have felt the need to post. Since the financing of the 
country doe snot change based on who I myself vote for, then I have every 
right to complain about that and anything else I desire. I'm tired of the 
argument made by the original poster, as I don't think it means anything.
