The government has too much power, no matter how much these people want to fight, they'll only succeed in hurting innocent people rather than actually making a change in how the government works. These people need to go back to school and realize if you educate yourself, you can make alot more changes on the inside than on the outside.


KAAAA-CHING!!!

best answer iv seen this today


       But the problem with this:  let's say you're working at a fast food restaurant and you show up almost everyday for two years and you work harder than anyone else there, but that doesn't really matter to the supervisors.  Then you see them promoting their own family members etc, at the restaurant instead of more deserving people, how are you going to have a chance to change things from the inside?

... and this is the core problem with arguing with teenagers and university students. These individuals have very strong opinions which are based on their emotional reacton to how they believe the world works, yet they do not have the experience or understanding of how the world really operates. A more mature adult who has worked towards building a career for several years is fully aware that if they're not respected and their contribution is not valued they have the option to find another job and work for a company where they will be appreciated.

As people get older and see the relationship between their and other people's actions and the consequences from them, which is why people tend to stop seeing people as hapless victims of an unfair society by the time they're in their 30s. This isn't to say that people (necessarily) abandon the desire to want to help people, but most people become aware that the only person standing in the way of unsuccessful people is the unsuccessful people themselves.

Mmmm thats why I dont like old guys ways of thinking.
