Maybe when politics addresses ME, I'll address politics. I realize I didn't give an easy solution to the problem. Maybe you were looking for some great invention by some college student that would solve the whole problem. If that is the case I apologize for making you read this letter. I will not blow smoke up anybody's ass, I tell it like I see it.
Complicated problems have complicated solutions.
A great number of young adults have lost interest in the political system of this country. It is really quite simple- the power structure is not working in our favor, we see no great future achievements in legislation or politics, and we would much rather put our energies towards more fulfilling ends. The nature of politics in this country has progressed to a corrupt web of lies and deception that clearly favors the white male who spends his life working nine to five and has given his voice, his freedom, his manhood over to his government. Those of us who refuse to succumb to this lifestyle find ourselves constantly battling to maintain even a base level standard of living. We have not chosen to close our eyes to the social conditions that surround us, and we have not chosen to be pretentious suburbians living life in a bubble of our own creation, fooling ourselves into believing that words and legislative acts will solve the many problems of these times.
