Democracy meets Capitalism.

I live in North Carolina and between now and November 4th we can participate in "No Excuse Early Voting".

As if I needed any more incentive to vote -- this year, our local mall -- Triangle Town Center is an Early Voting Location.  Is this some ingenious plan to get people to exercise their constitutional right/duty to vote as well as help spur the economy a bit?  

I can't go to our local B&N without spending at least 100 bucks!  I'll have to hit the food court first, too. 

Then if there is a line, I can spend my time munching away on Auntie Annie's Pretzels and a Mtn Dew while reading my latest knitting book. 

God Bless America!
