We don’t even care whether or not we care. – The NeverEnding Story

Apathy is the most dangerous thing I’ve ever run into.  When people quit complaining, you know you’re in trouble.  Someone I know does marriage counseling, and she always says that the time to let it go is when one or both of them quit caring.

That’s why I believe there is still hope for our Republic.  We bicker constantly.  We trumpet our competing opinions and viewpoints from the rooftops.  Taking to the streets is still a viable way to get your point across, and some of the top programs on television are still based on politics.

Still, I don’t look forward to the day when all but a few are willing to look away from spectacle in order to try to maintain and improve our country.  Here’s hoping I never see it.
