Not Content?

Here is another example of people not content with our current administration and a complete lack of mention to the solution. Do people really think that Rudy or Hilary are going to make a change for the good in this country? The article talks about both parties and many independents that are upset with the way our country is headed, yet not a mention of the only candidate that would actually chart a different course. I guess I should not be surprised. It not like Ron Paul matters to anyone. I mean he didn't just raise millions of dollars in one day through a grassroots donation program. Oh wait, yes he did!

What does all of this do to the best minds among the students? Most of them endure their college years with the teeth-clenched determination of serving out a jail sentence. The psychological scars they acquire in the process are incalculable. But they struggle as best they can to preserve their capacity to think, sensing dimly that the essence of the torture is an assault on their mind. And what they feel toward their school ranges from mistrust to resentment to contempt to hatred – intertwined with a sense of exhaustion and excruciating boredom.
