Do any of the following affect your motivation to vote? Choose all that apply.
The astounding list of federal political scandals throughout both parties (look up List of Federal Political Scandals in the United States).
The diminishing of the Bill of Rights. New laws in the last 10 years have diminished 6 out of 10 of the Bill of Rights of the constitution.
Conflict of interest - The very people who have power to declare war are people who benefit tremendously by going to war
Conflict of interest - Top executives of huge companies are allowed to approve their own applications from within the FDA, USDA, EPA, etc.

17 Republicans and 16 Democrats have been convicted of sex scandals in the last 10 years - many involving children
The rate of increase in convictions over the decades of local and State politicians (pages and pages)
That the party system tends to keep anything from progressing. The most powerful and wealthy do not want anything to progress.
The trillions in dollars that are wasted in greed within the healthcare insurance industry. (ie: over 50% of legitimate claims are initially denied, $billions are spent to resubmit denied legitimate claims, CEOs get paid $tens of millions each in salary and more than that in gifts and fringe benefits).
The discrepancy of wealth (just one of the 13 most wealthy families is worth over $500 TRILLION dollars in private wealth).
The 13 most wealthy families own controlling interest in every single industry in the world (kind-of like Monopoly).
For decades Congress has approved Hersheys, Nestle, Cadbury, and most other
huge chocolate companies to use chocolate suppliers who use primarily

using any sources of non-slave labor.
The "groupy" voters who do not know what they are voting for or against, but vote straight ticket.
That private families own the Federal Reserve
That citizen's tax dollars are used to subsidize, long-term, Walmart employees. Meaning citizens pay part of Walmart's labor expenses
That government has a welfare attitude toward huge conglomerate businesses even if they are making record-breaking profits.
That banks use the people's money to loan-out and the bank makes the interest (often times as much as even almost 30%). When people can not pay a mortgage, the interest and the principal becomes the property of the bank.
9/11 DATA. IE: The number of powerful people who benefited tremendously from the 9/11 attacks who were safe. - - - The astounding amount of evidence that was not included in the 9/11 official report. - - - That Osama Bin Ladan and two of the accused hijackers were on the Department of Defense payroll - - - That only $3million was initially allocated for the 9/11 investigation (total spent=$15million) while $47million was spent on Clinton/Lewinsky investigation and $48million was spent on Reagan/arm-for-hostages. - - - etc., etc., etc.
That fluoride is added to the public water supply in most states to prevent tooth decay. There is no indication fluoride decreases tooth decay (tooth decay was in a pattern of decrease from brushing which the addition of fluoride did not affect). Fluoride is shown in over 24 studies to to cause a decrease in intelligence - other studies show a significant concern for it's cause of a significant number of other important health problems.
