unfortunately , this seems to be an extremely hard concept for most people to grasp <| sep |> My photographer for my wedding actually did have the same couch as us ! ! We went to their house as their company is only five years old and they don ' t quite yet have a studio or office space , and that was the first thing I noticed ! ! They were the best photographers ever ! !<| sep |> The silly answer Have you ever seen The Running Man ? Going past the posts activates the explosive collar all pilots are forced to wear . <| sep |> That ' s correct . But let ' s not kid ourselves the government gets its power from the will of the people . And the best way for people to express their will is through their votes . How government runs matters , of course . But what matters even more , is how people view it . If people don ' t believe that the government is elected by its people then there ' s not much of a democracy and people are not going to willingly submit to it .
