When I talk about apathy, I look around and I see people who care more about Kim Kardashian than history, politics, or financial literacy. I look around and see people who care more about their fantasy football stats than their children's grades. I see people who would rather veg on the couch watching the same reruns over and over again instead of learning a new skill. I see ignorant ideas like America oppresses its people when in fact it's the American people who've forgotten that America enables them to be their best selves if they're strong enough to achieve it.
America was not founded for the common people. It was founded by the exceptional people who risked everything to come to this hostile continent in search of freedom from oppression. Freedom from serfdom. Freedom from debt. Freedom from religious persecution. Freedom to live how they wanted to!
America's population has forgotten its morals and what it means to be American. We are like the fat people in wall-e floating in our bubble, complaining at our minor inconveniences, and not knowing where we're going. We are fucked unless we turn this ship around.
