We'll never see it. Not in our lifetime. Not unless there's another Civil War. The "vote" will never bring about that kind of change. We see this ACTING like they want to change things and TALKING like they want to change things EVERY ELECTION, and then they get elected, and they conveniently FORGET all those big, fancy things they said and promised. It happens every mother fucking time, and it ain't gonna change.
No, we wont ever see it if we dont start trying. If we dont put the arguments out there we cant shift the debate in the direction.
But I intend to live for a long time. I also intend to do whatever in my power to shift this nation in the right direction even if i fail to live to see it happen. Im not just thinking of myself, but im thinking of my fellow citizens, my children, and grand children.
Our society expects immediate results or for some reason we dont bother doing anything. Problem just from being in a culture where every problem can be resolved in 30 mins on television. But the real world isnt like that. And while it may not be something we can see happening now, we can do amazing things if we work hard for it.
Let's start working toward it and changing the discussion or we will never get there.
