I’m in Oregon, and years ago I tried to unregister to vote, and ran into the same shit: There is simply no mechanism, at least in this state for doing so. So I just stopped voting. After about three or four elections in which I didn’t vote, I received a letter informing me that I was being removed as a voter. Apathy, apparently is the only way to do it. Since that time, they managed to suck me back in when I renewed my driver’s license. I still don’t participate, but now I have to wait for them to remove me again. I’m with you: I just want to be left the fuck alone.
Organ donation works the same way. You can opt to not donate particular organs, but you cannot opt out altogether.
Hmm, maybe I should adopt a more unhealthy lifestyle to make mine less attractive for harvest. What a world.
