Alright. So I don't blog very much at all, so I really don't know what I want or should blog about. Most blogs that I've read on here from classmates are kind of bitching about one thing or another, which makes since, as it's easy to get worked up enough to blog about something if your angry about it. So.
I really dislike the governments power. I'm actually doing my summary/response paper on an opinion piece that talks about the fact that the government lies and people just let them get away with it. My personal opinion is that it's because we the people are so used to losing when going up against the government, it's useless to try. For example, I had to go to court once and while I was waiting for my turn, I watched others' cases. A few cases were people who got a traffic ticket and were trying to fight it. But to no avail because even though the judge went through the motions of hearing them out and putting up a show that maybe the victims (?) were right, in the end he still just said, "Well, these officers are trained in their field and know what they're doing" sort of thing. So you lose. Straight up. I think no one would really have a chance at fighting this sort of battle without hard core evidence with a video recording of the incident or something.
I could go on and on about how disgusting and corrupt our government is, but I know for sure that there are plenty of other governments that are worse than ours. So I just have to tell myself that it's pointless to worry about the whole of our governments shortcomings and just try to focus on surviving my personal battles with the government, for the most part...until I am in a position to do more about it, right? ;)
