i agree and disagree GT40. i mean sure most people wont responed for one main reason they dont care. like politics is something for people over 25. sure some of use younger crowd will discuss it, but most dont becuase they dont know whats going on. they also are never spoken to from politians. do you see kerry or bush talking the younger crowd of america. no it all drugged upped medicare old people and minorties.

a post on a movie will get more replies, then most anything. the masturbation for took off cuase its something everyone does. now we all discuss it freely. which could be a bad thing....

in some of your post i disagreed but never said anything. why, just didnt feel like. i wasnt all informed on the topic or just didnt care enough. like politics, i dont care. when my voice is heard maybe i will.

Some of that I'll agree with, while some of it a perfect example of what's wrong with young people in America. Man...politics isn't just for people over 25. I'm 23 and I've been politically minded since before I was old enough to vote. It's painfully true that politicians don't talk to us, and that's a huge mistake. On the other hand, what they're doing does effect you. For instance, if the country goes to war, as it's seen fit to do lately, like it or not there's a possibility you could end up there whether you want to be or not. So that decision to wage war is a big factor in just about everyone's life. Sure, that's a drastic scenario, but it's just an example. There's a lot of other things that effect younger people that we ignore because we like to whine about how nobody's paying attention to us. Why? Young people are incredibly likely not to vote. Older people are much more likely to vote. So...who's your daddy? People who are in all likelyhood going to hit the polls on election day or people who are just gonna sit around, thumbs up their asses?
