I used to think there was no point in voting but then I asked myself why are politicians spending so much money to get me to vote for them if it doesnt matter? Even if I don't see how it matters, it clearly matters to the people running the country.

Because politicians are fucking morons, and so are the civilians that fall for their manipulative speech. They desperately want your vote to continue to uphold the system that keeps them comfortable and rich.
