As I've become engaged locally with small business meetups and county government affairs. It's growingly apparent that the reason the youth are not running things is they're mot showing up. Probably because of crushing inflation. Just one reason I use my freed time to engage. Not many else are.
Discussion
Valid point, but this goes beyond inflation. Politics for politicians sake. Divisiveness and hatred. No focus on actual needs or actual problems with actual solutions. Winners and losers.
Why engage with a dying and incredibly corrupt system?
I don't want to be ruled but I also don't want to rule.
Engaging brings awareness. There's also a power dynamic to be built that can leverage existing failing infrastructure
Awareness drives engagement. All government actions should be conducted with maximum transparency. Technology must be leveraged to improve awareness if engagement is the goal.
Engagement, awareness, and transparency are political aversions.
