And that's the problem.

Too many people think your way so never email, write, or phone if they don't like anything. How do you think all these bills and crappy legislation passes? BECAUSE NOBODY OBJECTS TO IT.

You have to take a stand somewhere. I've been emailing and writing my "guys" for years. They at least have my opinion on items that matter. More people have to take a stand or else this will continue.

Back in the 40s to early 60s, no one ever questioned the government. During the Viet Nam war, people starting speaking out against the war, against other causes (some not so good), but they spoke. Government started to listen.

Lately, the only ones taking a stand are the lobbyists and radical groups, not the average every day citizen. Stand up for your rights or lose them. That's the name of the game.

I'll get off my soap box now.
