It's Your Government Too

Hello everyone, this one should be pretty short and sweet so I'm just going to jump right into it.

Please contact the government. Spend a few minutes contacting your congressman(person?), the White House or really anyone in government to let them know what you think. It's your government too. This country, for all its problems, is a democratic, if not completely so, country. It's not only your right to get involved, it's your duty. You need to get involved, especially when so many of you have issues with how things are going. Don't like the high tuition of colleges, contact Congress. Despise that we use torture or 'enhanced interrogation techniques', get in touch with the President, tell him (or her if that's what the future holds), that you want that to stop. A country is nothing without its people. Power resides where you and I believe it to reside. If you think power is invested corporations, than it is. But if you realize that it is only such because you allow it to be as such, than the power begins to return to you. Contacting the government won't solve all the problems we face, but its a start and it's far better than nothing. So get involved. It doesn't take much time or effort and it could be the beginning of a huge change. Only today I contacted the President. This will be the three time I've done so, and I've actually gotten a response. So go ahead, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

With that, I bid you all a good day and wish you well until next time.
