Living in a free society doesn’t mean that you ride the coattails of the folks ensuring it remains free. Too many years of apathy and ignorance have left a damaged system. If you don’t think you have to do anything, then I would say that you need to leave this country. If you say that nothing can be done, then I would say you are scared and insecure about yourself. If you say that that things are far too gone to fix, then I would say that today you still have options; it will be too far gone when war is on our land and China (et al) calls in their loans. God has given each of us abilities and skills. What are you doing to earn your freedom?
