If all people who felt that way were to stop participating, it would quickly become apparent that it is an illegitimate institution.
I've thought about this quite a bit since I first read it & I do think the system is broken, I haven't exactly trusted it in several years and frankly what the hell do I really care if someone online tells me I'm not entitled to my opinion because I didn't vote, pfft and no one in real life would dare to say that to me so I'm really leaning towards not voting, screw 'em all.
We didn't have a permanent income tax prior to our money supply being gifted to the central banksters. In return we got debt slavery. Democrats and Republicans = good cop/bad cop, each one playing both roles in accordance with demographics. Machiavelli would be impressed, I think.
