Responding to Citizen's Comments

 Netizen: How do I make myself a responsible voter?

Response: You will be a responsible voter if you do your assignment right and make your own research. Much like looking for your lifetime partner, you need to check the candidate's profiles and where they are leaning on societal issues - are they for or against the war on drugs, attacks on civil society, freedom of media, gender identity, red-tagging, abortion, death penalty, human rights violations, same-sex marriage, pre-marital sex, corruption, overpopulation, and poverty.

You also need to check for what people say about them both pros and cons and research their reviews and the current projects they are in. If they are congressmen and senators, look for headlines that show how they respond to critiques and opinions, what campaign promises they made and kept and what laws they have authored and passed.

And while we are at it, listen to their platform and how it will affect you.  Research is tedious, sluggish, and time-consuming but in the long run, it may be worth your while.
