I used to hate watching the news. Ignorance was bliss. All it ever did was upset and scare me. That certainly hasn't changed, but I've realized the importance of knowing. Awareness is the first step to change. And we truly need it. Being abroad the past year and meeting people from all over the world has made me so much more concious about what is going on in my own country and it's depressing to realize I hate what I see.
Sorry, Mom. :(
Not only did the Republican governor of Wisconsin cut all collective bargaining rights for public workers, but now the American government is facing a shutdown if an agreement on spending can't be reached.
Good to know the Republicans would rather see our nation at a standstill to prove a point rather than seek compromise.
I am honestly moving to Europe.
Although everywhere has their problems. And not just politically.
Earthquake turned tsunami. WARNING. All the way from New Zealand to America.
And to think that's just the start of the problems...
Just wanted to give a little shout out to the people in Japan and all of the workers affected in Wisconsin. Hoping for the best.
