Don't worry. Next time there will be a candidate who promises to never be like Obama and never lie to the public. He (or she) will give you hope that maybe this time things are going to change. And you are going to be believe it, because "what's the alternative?". And then you are going to vote sincerely believing that your vote is important and the system works. And all the bad will be forgotten and the life will pass in a blissful ignorance of the fact the they got you by the balls - for your own safety, of course. It's okay, my friend, repeat after me: we are a civilized society, democracy works, voting is important, the government is largely on your side.
