It never gets old seeing the statement "voting contrary to their own
self-interest" because someone doesn't vote as you would have them do
so.  I harbor no illusions that both major parties are pretty worthless,
but the unmitigated gall of that statement alone is appalling.  You want
to know why our political system is screwed up, it's that exact mentality.
