I keep thinking of the old woman who quit voting very late in life. When asked why, she replied, I don't want to encourage them.
This is a true story. The woman was someone known by my late soul brother, Dick. I dig her point and wonder how long it will be before I reach the same conclusion. Retire from citizenship and coast the rest of the way, not worrying about who wins or loses in politics, they all end up being the same. Politics corrupts. Power corrupts. To hell with it.
Of course, this is not a very practical way to be if you still have stakes in the game. Kids, grand kids. You want the best for them. I missed all that. I'm on my own. My children are the individual works in my archive. Hell of a deal.
