One day I did register, because there was a county wheel tax proposal on the ballot.
So I registered in order to vote NO on the tax, but I suppose this was a trap of sorts, because I registered myself onto their slave-roll voluntarily.

I'm thinking of un-registering.
You should.

Voting becomes consent and assent to being represented.
Being represented means the actions of the agent are presumed to be the actions of elector.
If legislature proposes to raise taxes and succeeds despite your disapproval, you assent to the tax.

Definitely a trick for their benefit.
Think of representation as a perfected and sophisticated form of servitude.
