Regardless of who wins the election we are still slaves. The choice between slave masters is just so that you feel like your not a slave. One of Frederick Douglass's masters would let him leave to work a job, and he even got to keep some earnings. He knew he was still a slave though, just one with more privileges which in some ways was worse to him because he was getting a taste of freedom but didn't actually have it.

Many people spend a large portion of their working hours working for the government because of income taxes. You don't get to decide how the money is spent just because you "voted". Politicians don't really care what you want. There are so many unelected "officials" that have power over your life.

Are you ok with the state using your hard earned money to kill people in pointless wars, imprisoning nonviolent people for victimless "crimes", or just wasting it on corruption and bloat? If that's what you want done with your money then maybe you aren't a slave, in that case you're just a sociopath.
