Subdue the Masses

I haven't been tuned in to what's going on in the world as much lately. A lot of my energy gets sapped from my day job just like everyone else. Most of the time when I get home I don't want to sit in front of the computer or spend brain juices thinking about the complexities of the world and social justice.

But this morning I was thinking about that's one of the major problems in our society: people get so caught up in the day to day that they don't pay attention to what's going on around them. Reminds of the saying that there are three kinds of people in the world: those who makes things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who wonder what happened.
