I agree about resisting the siren song of state help, but that doesn't mean there is no function for the state. And, voting definitely does *something*. The problem is when people put democracy on a pedestal and expect it to solve all problems (like poverty, education, etc) and are inevitably disappointed.

What would happen if we all just stopped voting entirely?

Voting doesn’t do anything. The problem is that power corrupts and all empires eventually fall. Liberty reigns only as long as the people can resist the siren song of state sponsored “help”
