  • We can't let apathy and ignorance become the status quo

      What this quote signifies is that we can't let ignorance and apathy be a reason for people not to make a difference. We need to change what's going on and make people realize the importance of several fundamental issues going on in today's world.

      Well said. The status quo - accepting things as they are and not making necessary changes- is like death because it's a state of non-growth.
  • The report found that younger people "do not understand the ideals of citizenship, they are disengaged from the political process, they lack the knowledge necessary for effective self-government, and their appreciation and support of American democracy is limited."

      Younger people don't know what's going on politically. When it comes time to vote, they won't be able to make their own decisions; they will most likely be lead to follow something that they don't truly understand.

      Do you think that it's only knowledge that they lack? Do you think that young people think their efforts won't make a difference in a 'corrupt' system?

      No, I do not think that it's the only knowledge that they lack. I was just giving an example. There are elements of corruption, but our society is always looking for change. I think that if people are really passionate, that their efforts will be worth while.
  • The baby boomers, the World War II generation and our schools have failed to teach the ideals of citizenship to young people."

    This article is useful for my project because it states facts and shows statistics that really show how younger people are unaware and apathetic towards issues that revolve around their own government. It helps us make our hypothesis of teen awareness more thorough.
