Lame excuse to not do anything. Pretty sure the Suffragettes. Rosa Parks, MLK, and all our past heros that stood up for what is right at whatever cost to them had no control over the laws they were trying to change.You mean if you're eligible to vote right? States aren't just made up of 100% eligible voters.
What about issues with people in power that you had no control over because at the time you weren't eligible to vote?
What about term limits or empty promises or political plans that sounded good on paper and yet failed miserably?
I don't find your statement to be black and white.
Everyone has power to change if they get involved.
