One could argue that by voting you're supporting the status quo, the bipartisan democracy heavily invested in said status quo. You are the one obstructing change.

Or to say it with a quote:

If democracy demands compulsory voting for candidates people can't believe in, it's not democracy, it's extortion.

EDIT: One further thought on that reasoning: it might actually make one morally obliged to vote for a third party.

It does, actually. Ice cream can put you at grave risk of brain freeze.

Good point! Then again, I don't think some flavors result in less brain freeze than others.

Even breathing has downsides.

True as well, every breath destroys lung cells.

If you want to be philosophical about it, consider this: If there weren’t pros and cons, you wouldn’t be making a choice at all.

This, however, I'm having a hard time to agree with. Come to think of it, I'm not even sure choice is something natural, but that will require some deeper investigation to ascertain. In a fictional natural state, when looking for a place to sleep, would a "family" really (have to) make a conscious choice between this cave and that one?

Very interesting viewpoint but it doesn't quite seem to apply when choosing flavors at an ice cream parlor.
