Rather than passively accepting that "they're all assholes" why not raise the bar and your expectations of those who govern and made decisions that effect your life?

How would changing my expectations actually change the performance of these assholes?
I still vote in every election - so it's not as if I'm taking an apathetic, passive stance. I stay current on news, economies and social issues. But beyond voting, there's very little one can do unless they're terminally unemployed and can spend all day as an activist.
Something I don't have the luxury of doing these days. I still have several million "activist" dependents that rely on my income tax support.
