I don't think you're wrong, you're well within your rights much like Kapernick. In our democracy, those who can act collectively as voters will always be the masters of those who abstain as rugged individualists. Not necessarily directly; but, at least indirectly. I'm glad that doesn't adversely affect your pursuit of happiness. I wouldn't recommend it to most people though as in most it would not present as altruistic; but, as a hypocritical character flaw. I don't discount that there are some true conscientious objectors to participation in the election system. It's just that as with those who claim to be military conscientious objectors, the true ones are few and far between ... the rest are just self serving.
