Paul,
So you would see no difference between living in an authoritarian
state with no respect for civil or economic liberties (Let's say
Mussolini's Italy) and a social democratic state that ignores your
economic liberties but at least gives you some degree of personal
freedom (Let's say today's Sweden). As I said before, if I'm being the
chance to vote, I will vote. Even if I'm not pleased with who I am
voting for, I can be proud to vote against the greater evil.
