Celtic, I mean you no disrespect but I had to laugh when you said that you we're going to write your congressman. They don't care. You think they don't know what's going on?
I made you laugh and you made me shake my head in disappointment. Your bitter apathy is exactly the reason our government can do the thing they do.
The sad thing is a lot of people think the way you do. People don't vote, they don't talk to their elected representatives.
Of the People, By the People, For the People. That's what our government is supposed to be. But, the apathy of the people has let that idea die. They'd rather laugh and quote bad philosophy that only enforces that apathetic thinking. I wish I could laugh but, I can see beyond the surface. People laugh, get bitter, feel helpless, think there is no hope.... They spend their energy complaining to no one.
When you refuse to take on the responsibility of holding your government accountable and laugh at those who do... What are you? You're part of the problem is the answer.
