I Am tired of Choosing the Lesser of Two Evils

I have been signing petitions and posting on social media in support of candidates and causes of the Democratic party, but mostly it is a question of choosing the lesser of two evils. Yes, I am definitely in favor of the Affordable Care Act, but it does not go far enough. Healthcare is still too expensive for many people. Pharmaceutical companies have too much influence over politicians. Medical procedures still cost too much in the U.S.A. I have not heard any political candidate address the issue of the excessive salaries and benefits of the members of congress. Once elected into office they are guaranteed a ridiculously high pension. Some members of congress claim that increasing the minimum wage would hurt the economy. It has been proven that that is complete bullshit. Their pensions are a drain on the economy. I am tired of choosing between the lesser of two evils. The political system of this country is corrupt. This country was never intended to be a democracy. The Electoral College is one of the signs of that. It was intended from the beginning that the U.S.A. would be an oligarchy. Too many people in this country are willing to follow people with big mouths who feed their fears, I will keep saying that it is time for a revolution. I see now that what we need is a strong Socialist-Anarchist Party.
