Lol! Because you have been to college doesn't mean you believe everything your told there. Most colleges want you to make your own beliefs and choose your own paths. I can't say that I want to have to have a college degree to get a decent paying job, but that seems to be the case across the board. I will say, I don't have a PHD, but I do have a college education. I do not think or believe that I have been brain washed by any means. In fact, college opened my eyes and made me cherish the things that we all hold dear, our freedoms and beliefs! BUT you are deff entitled to your own opinion, and I respect that.

I think America has been faced with a lot worse and she always seems to triumph. The American people will stand proud and united as always. We as Americans have a duty to vote and to be active when it comes to public policy. I also believe that MY generation has taken a pro-active stand in voicing there opinions and taking the opportunity to vote. We have maintained a great deal of dignity and normalcy in our daily life's despite threats by well known terrorists. We have been wasting valuable resources, life's, and great minds to war efforts. These efforts have been long, drawn out, and not nearly as successful as we hoped they would be. We provide a great deal to the needy of the world and yet the worlds hands are still held high and open grasping for freebies from the U.S. Many people in the United States have forgotten what it means to be a HARD WORKING American. Nowadays the piece of paper you get when you graduate college says a lot about a man and his chances of success in the real world. In the "good ole days" it was possible to make a living so to speak without a college degree. It is pretty clear that this is no longer the case. Im not flaunting and im not teasing, Im pointing our mere facts. If the U.S is going to number 2 in your opinion and you have not voted on every piece of legislature that you had access to then consider it the fault of your own. You can expect your lawn to be cut if you dont cut it, you can expect a seed to grow if you dont plant it, you cant expect your children to want success if you dont want success, and you cant expect change if you dont fight for it. Old, young, republican, democrat, liberal, conservative we all need to voice our opinions in order for our country to be a true reflection of us. We need to understand certain legislative purposes and we need not pitty ourselves. If we work together there is nothing we cant accomplish. This has been proven by the American people time and time again.
