Yes, it is all very complex. No, I cannot tell you what is the best answer for you or for all. You must engage your brain, gather the facts (the actual facts sorting the wheat from the well-presented, deliberate chaff), reason from them to what appears workable to you, actively engage in discussion (even when embarrassing or you fear being ostracized), and cast your votes. Democracy, in a Constitutional Democratic Republic with two tiers of branch balanced government "of the people, by the people, for the people7," is a responsibility that lies entirely on the shoulders of you, you, you, and you.

7 Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg Address, November 19, 1863
