seriously though, you're lucky that your country doesn't obsess over the presidential process the way Americans do. You can walk up to almost anyone in america now-a-days and brush the topic of politics. They'll let it be known pretty quick which candidate they support. The circus grew 3 times larger in 2016 and never slowed down.

I do admire the 'non-compulsory' voting system the USA employs. I live in a country where it's compulsory to vote or you face a fine, and that throws it's own spanners in the work. Youth voters are BAD voters, most of them vote on impulse or, these days what meme's they buy into.
We had a guy down here that got into power on the basis' that he was deemed the first politician that 'connected' with the youth - all he did was post some Youtube videos, made a Facebook account and that was the 'connection' needed for the youth to vote for him, and promised to deliver 'faster' internet that has ended up costing the nation 3x the quoted cost (he is long gone out of power and retired to his pension funded mansion of course).
I don't recall the stats but don't only 40% of eligible voters in the 'Merica vote? which means you have to rally people to vote vrs just having some random bozo's (Aussie slang for idiots) show up and tick a name on a ballot.

People are obsessed with Bezos out of jealousy.
That guy went from 0$ in his pocket to richest man in the world in 20 years, should be admiring that shit.
I've worked hard my whole life and I'm 34 now and have a net wealth of only 1.4mil so can't imagine how hard he worked and the risks he took to get to where he is.
