My company doesn't close on election day...being in the hospitality industry it doesn't really close at all.

That is what I would call a useless beuracracy. A government law, job and or function created out of thin air making mandatory the the filling out (in triplicate Im sure) and filling a piece of paper so it can filed under "none of the above". When a person can simply just stay home and get on with his life.

on the other hand just think of all the goverment jobs that could be created to collect, file and maintain all that paperwork.
