I can't find in US Constitution where it says...

49. Okay, but here's the thing - you may be unaware of certain things,

And that's fine. I mean, no one knows everything.

But let's face it - there is a huge segment of the American public who "doesn't have time for politics." They have plenty of time to get their nails done, or to watch TV reality shows, or to stare at their navel. But they are uninformed about anything politically. It just doesn't concern them, they will explain.

If a person is uninformed about politics because of needing to work three jobs, or they are busy raising their kids, I understand that. But a lot of people don't care to be informed.

I feel it is rather nonsensical to live your life without an interest in politics, now more than ever. I suspect you feel that way also, or you wouldn't be on this political discussion forum.

If we as a nation are going to retain a decent educational system, and the environmental standards that need to be re-worked so that someone in my neighborhood putting out bird seed doesn't pay more in fines than the natural gas company that is destroying drinking water across the nation with the fracking activities, etc, it is going to take a lot more people putting their boots on the ground and applying their minds and their backs to the problem.

Each day of the week, the One Percent is taking away more and more aspects of American middle class life. It is going to take a hundred thousand times the numbers of people that are now attempting to stop them in order to accomplish what needs to happen. Hopefully people will start to become involved, and not wait until it is no longer possible to have decent drinking water, or to send kids to school, or to envision decent paying jobs ever again existing inside this country. We also need to ensure that the Elite doesn't gobble up Social Security or MediCare, as they seem very determined to do over the next two years.
