Interestingly, it's those same healthy, educated people who vote for those changes.



Im not so sure about that, people who finished college or high school in my country are in minority. Im sure this is also the case in most modern countries. I also think that considering voting as a valid way to influence politicians in an age of corpo-corruption is pretty silly. Sure you can pick politicians but if there are like 4 major parties which all sellout to highest bidder, voting is pretty pointless because result is always the same. Creating new parties is out of question because you need vast amounts of funds to accomplish it.
