The Doorbell » Peoples Choice Award Favorite

We have all listened, via the television and newspapers the banter that has been going on between politicians. I for one, and I am sure I am not alone, are finding it very hard to have any respect for any of them. It does not matter what party they belong to. I find it hard to comprehend that we allow these people to run our lives, so easily take away our freedoms, basically give them the power to steal our hard earned money send our young to war.
When I saw this video, it almost shocked me in to understanding what our young generation will be up against in the future. I will not see it as I will probably be ‘pushing up daisies’ but it does not make me feel any less disturbed. We love our children and grandchildren none of us want them to struggle with their existence like it appears that they may.
I personally believe that these children will start standing up for their rights and these politicians will not get away with what they do now and I believe our kids will change the future because they will have to. I believe they will make a greater future for themselves and hopefully without politicians and Big Brother standing over them.
