The Political Break Down

So I heard that some of the teachers at our school were disappointed in the attendence of senior students at the political assembly held last week. Personally i was one of many who ditched the assembly to work on some homework.
But when  I heard teachers were dissapointed I was a little confused. We're senior students, we have work to do in order to impress universities and we dont really have time between a part-time job, homework and extra ciriculars to take time out to listen to a bunch of politicians.
And when I was in the guidance office I listen to a teacher tell a student why they should not vote conservative just because their parents did.

Well what I would like to know is who else are we supose to vote for. The Liberals who are allianced with the Quebec political party who only represent one province? And that weird Micheal guy who looks really creepy on TV and hasn't even been in Canada the last 10 years?! Plus Steve Clark is asking us for his vote. How do we expect him to run a riding when he can't even run a restaurant with decent service!?
Or how about the green party who has been promoting their green views, but guess what we are still paying insane amounts of tax and all they are worried about is the environmet!
And the NDP, all they want to do is eliminate the middle class and then help the upper and lower class maintain their life styles.
And the conservatives take OUR tax dollars and spend them on decorations for the G8 and G20.

So who's left!?
Who do we vote for?
Who do we let run our country?
Who do we let waste our tax dollars?
Because if anyone knows the answer to that I would love to hear what we are supose to be doing so that we arent up to our ears in debt.
