Corruption within the system is a concerning force that holds people back from going to the polls. I didn't vote for a long time because of that very reason. It took some maturing on my end before I started to realize that regardless of what goes on inside the mechanics of politics, my vote still has a voice and it does make noise when I cast my ballot. Texas and the United States as a whole need to buckle down on the blatantly criminal acts allowed to be committed from the President's office all the way down to the School Board of Education and beyond. It seems as if it is an uncontrollable beast because the people who could actually do something to stop it either put on blinders or they are so deep into corruption
