Demonstration Democracy

//
Opinion
Just read Dr. Fitrakis's article posted at Online Journal. Earleir today, I was leafletting agains the recall of California Governor Grey Davis. One young fellow walked by and I asked him if he knew about the recall.

"Don't bother me"

Don't you want a democracy? I asked

" I don't care, I am going home to watch a football game."

"So it's OK with you if the country goes Fascist?" "It's OK fo r other people to make decisions that could dramatically afffect your life?"

"You are delusional" he said.

I could only think, "So I'm delusional?"

Many people are way beyond help. And he is a young guy. Where does that leave the future?

Anyway, thanks for your work.
