This is for everyone who says they are tired of hearing about Political opinions on FB. This is the apathy that will be our demise. The people who do care about politics are the ones who will be our masters. The Greek philosopher Plato said, “The price of apathy towards public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.” And as Floyd recently pointed out, “There’s always a power-hungry person intent on stealing your patrimony.” But Americans simply don’t care. If we don’t care enough to understand the political process and to be involved in it, how do we hold the government accountable? And how do we keep an already too-big government from growing even more? The evidence of this epidemic is out. It’s sweeping across our nation, and has Americans nonchalantly relinquishing their liberties to an out-of-control government. And if we think that apathy and sideline antics are what’s going to ensure we salvage the liberties that we’re already seeing ripped away from us, we’re in for a severely rude awakening.
