10. You're spot on, Warpy, and I'm not surprised it won't be heard.
There are many reasons why non-voters don't vote, but what you vocalized is the primary one: many people whose very survival issues are no longer of any concern to *either* party.

If we actually want to solve the problem of non-participation in this society, we will have to LISTEN to those who don't ote, and actually be willing to hear what they have to say, and to respond accordingly.

Just getting angry and judging them doesn't change one blessed thing.

You put your finger on it, and if you can understand it, so can the DEM party. If they really wanted to.
