This kind of apathy is how you end up 40 years down the road asking yourself what happened to your country, where all the good jobs went, why your kids and grandkids can't afford the things you remember having.

Because we led, doesn't mean we will lead. You get to be a leader by leading, not by resting on your laurels while someone else becomes a leader.

A lot of people here are arguing with corporateguy5 (to whom i can't reply directly on his dead comment) on the basis of his apparent racism, which is bad, but no one has pointed out that he's just passing the buck, instead of making an effort to improve the country, he can just blame the failure on ethnicity xyz.

So, while I don't think I'll have an impact on corporateguy5's opinion, maybe some other reader will keep this in mind and somehow benefit from the awareness?
