It's a simple yes or no question... in some countries, you know you're
represented by your goverment because of your social status, caste, or
political affiliations.  In the USA, you know you're represented when you
vote.  People here no longer get killed for voting, so there's no reason not
to do it.  I'm just wondering, when you claim not to be represented, whether
you tried to be or not, or pursued other avenues of representation.  Should
I assume by your answer that you didn't vote?  After all, like free speech,
it's your right in the US.
