    Based on the voter turnout in the last US Federal election, I would say you COULD have made the system better (or at least not immeasurably worse) by voting.

    Folks just chose not to.

        Which means more time to make it better. I would rather have things fall apart in pieces instead of collapsing as a whole

            So you’re telling me you’d rather your entire house fall to dust, than for parts of your house to fall apart over time so you have time to build it up better? That’s a really weird take.
