I've been thinking about the great minds of the past. they weren't people who bowed to society, they didn't think how others thought. they followed there own path. but today's society is so focused on making now better, that they sacrifice the future.


I say we cut government spending, and raise taxes, and provide free health care. stop printing more money that waters down the worth, and make schools a priority. make collage free. and base level jobs accessible to those without job experience. one shouldn't need cash register experience to use a cash register. make laws that punish the employer for paying under the table, and hiring illegal immigrants. allow gay marriage, and put tighter restrictions on what churches can do in politics, as it is unconstitutional. if a teacher is accused of rape, don't put it on there record, or tell the students at the school unless they are found guilty, as kids will do this to get rid of good teachers. obviously don't let the teacher teach during the proses, but don't ruin their career if you don't know they did anything. let's regulate television more, but not stricter. we are the country that shows the most skin, but the least nudity, this causes people to grow up desiring this forbidden nudity that is also idolized by tv. child television should be educational, but most importantly, should stimulate them to think on there own. the shows when I was a kid did a great job at this. I would watch shows about everyday stuff, where the kid learned about normal everyday things. I could go on and on, but I will continue my point.

our government isn't the only problem here, it is us. the people of the united states are the 4th, and most powerful branch of government. we were given the right to protest, to tell our opinion, to make changes. if we all stood up and told the government what to do, they would either do as we told then, or they should be overthrown. and that is how our country was made, treason because they weren't acting on any one's interests but there own. the government has turned the united states into the decided states with partisanship. we have a choice that is greater then republican or democrat. we can make anyone president, but we respond to the money, and the lies that they tell us. when was the last time we had a president that fulfilled what they promised to us before the elections? I'll tell you. it was the last president that got shot. why? because, to make change we need to be bold! and this makes us targets. but don't you see, if someone is targeted like that, they are doing what more people should do. instead we fear what may happen.

I am willing to die for a change that will make the world better in the long run. to work through the hardships, the stress, and the temptation to fall into a complacent lifestyle. but sadly I will not be in a position to do anything, for I don't have the money to influence great numbers of people. and this will likely fall on the ears of two people.

my mind is great at solving problems and I can figure a way to fix most issues, big and small, that come around. but I find I cannot solve most problems that only involve me. my anxious, my laziness, and my lack of money. these things keep me back in the world, and dependent upon someone. I hate living off of people I care for, and I hate not having a job, or knowing how to even look for one.

I feel like when I die, I will have changed nothing. sure, I will have effected a lot of people in a small way, but with each year, those differences I made are less and less important. even the great people of America are recognized for the wrong things. Washington for being the first president, instead of his ideas to keep a country united. Lincoln for freeing the slaves, Kennedy for being killed, Columbus for finding America. they did great things, or had great things done to them, but we miss what is important. and that thing we are missing is the reason that my mind is such a waste. few have the mindset I have. the mindset that will always try to move forward. and I will always try to do something in this world, and never will give up, but so few people think like this, and they are so far apart, and surrounded by the rest of the world, that they will never see what a difference can truly be made.

I doubt this will reach many people, like I said, two people is what I'm expecting. but I have to try to let people know. it's just the way I am.
