You correct that in any scenario there will inevitably be those who stay with the current system regardless of what the masses do. However, the point @mudbloodvonfrei is making isn't that the current system is great or essential so much that a situation in which everyone stops voting is never going to occur from a game theory standpoint so long as a government exists.

What would happen if we all just stopped voting entirely?

***** = In that sucky old system that most people are avoiding.

You make it sound like the current govt is the only thing keeping this ship afloat.

No, the fact is that this ship floats DESPITE that sucky govt trying to sink it 24/7. 

While a few will stay and try to keep the (now tiny) system that works for them going, the rest of us will have moved on to something new & better.
