Nature is just enough; but men and women must comprehend and accept her suggestions.

I’m really getting sick of hearing about nothing but global warming and the environment.  I think that it’s important, but not to the extent it is presented to us.  One of the things I have noticed about America, is that we are a country of followers, and therefore very susceptible to propaganda.  We don’t care about anything until someone tells us to, and we will buy into anything that is presented through a media circus.  Maybe I’m just cynical from the whole Y2K thing, but I feel that global warming may not be as bad as the media is making it out to be.  Another reason we are so susceptible to propaganda is because we are so uninformed.  The majority of this country puts more thought into their next meal than their next president.   The problem is that then you have a whole slew of people who think that they know what is going on, or at least to a satisfactory extent just because they watched a special on TV.  So if people want some common sense out of their leaders, they have to infuse it into the next generation first.  It doesn’t just grow on trees, you know?
