Voter

Someone who doesn't really have the same access to the results of the polls that the people who tell them that their vote or bond passed or didn't pass have. From the people who say they count the ballots to the people that make the laws or pass the bonds, to them the people who vote are like sheep that blindly accept rather than question what is in their best interest.

A voter isn't somebody that the people who tell the voters they are in charge and know what is in their voters' best interest think about. Dollar signs is what they think about.

Brave

Brave people don't usually have a long life expectancy, and anybody over 35 that tells you they are brave even though they are still alive is full of shit.

It might be admirable to be brave and die before 35, but most people try to endure a little bit longer than that, even if it means being a little bit more cowardly to get there.
