Kid's Nervous Breakdown Due to Climate Change

The Canadian government released today their inspid war on climate change tactics. It got me to wondering why college and university students no longer protest these willy-nilly pablum textured policies.

I personally had a nervous breakdown (kinda like being caught in an endless acid trip gone wrong) over the U.S. government's nuclear testing on Amchitka Island, Alaska.
There were prostests on college and university campuses all over Canada and the U.S. This was back in a time when students (read people) had power over the media, because the media needed them on lsow news days.


Not any more. Is crowd control more effective these days? Do all of those students not want to ruffle any acadmeic feathers in case they get failing grades at the hand of the administrators? My word, think of it - denied my MBA because of participating in a student demonstration that I could easily avoid.


No dear readers, not because of any of that. It's because of apathy.


The only use apathy is to us today, is for the saving the lives of the potentially suicidal.


"Suicide?, I can hear the apathetic depressive saying.


"I don't really have an opinion on that. Check with me again tomorrow."
