Voting itself makes no difference at all to the grand scheme of things. All the promises made in election campaigns are pie in the sky, they never materialise or if they do they're mismanaged to the point of failure/collapse. The only things you can guarantee are that you're going to end up paying more for less because it's all about MONEY. Taxes are the only things MPs are guaranteed to 'improve' and not for our benefit.

Paul replies: One would consider this the 'cynical' view. No longer believing that politicians aim to do good, one looks at the process as somehow worthless. Maybe less reading about all the things they do wrong and more balancing it by reading about the wonderful things they do right too.
I mean there's 600+ MPs and in the past 10 years we've maybe had 120 political scandals (1 a month) so I reckon statistically most MPs are at least trying to do good, even if they fail regularly.
