Failure to vote, is not voting-for-no one. It is spliting your vote 50/50.
If you're happy with that then by all means, don't vote.
But please then don't complain about taxes, or depending, or policy, or whatever. If you think its all the same, then what's the point of complaining.
Personally, I don't think you'll ever find a politician who shares your exact set of values, much less a party. That's OK. For me, one party represents more of my values than the other. When push comes to shove I'd be happier with more than less.
