One more frustration post, then I'll chill for a bit...
When you enter a voting booth, you're not just deciding for yourself. You're establishing policy for *other people*.
I'm asking that we think beyond us-vs-them modality and actually think about what will help not only us, but those around us.
You may have great health insurance... others don't.
You may not have financially crippling student loans... others do.
You may be 22 in great shape with no pre-existing conditions... others aren't in that position.
You might not be a terrified pregnant woman with no options... other people are.
Think of not just yourself when you vote.
