Because the govt. just grinds you down with legislation, and more legislation. You can tell them they are a bunch of useless wankers 'til you're blue in the face, they just absorb and ignore the insults. I told an AEC employee he was a liar on the phone this morning, all he could say was that that is what they've been told to tell people. Vote how we tell you to, not how the law says you can. The local MP's office was the same, she accused Turnbull of changing the voting laws to eliminate minor parties from the Senate. I told he she was defaming him, because the law hasn't changed. You can still just put a "1" above the line - but again, that's what the AEC have told everyone.

And that's been the problem with the EU. It's much easier for me to yell at someone in Aus who is fairly close to the matter - how do you think you would go trying to find someone in the EUrocracy whom you could vent your feelings at? Faceless three times removed. Do you know the definition of jam? That it took the EU 22 years to work it out? After all that time, they came up with "Jam is made from fruit". Gosh. But wait, there's more. The Portuguese make jam from carrots. Therefore for the purposes of this legislation, carrots are defined as fruit.

Who the hell would want to live under such a bureaucracy?
