I am in total agreement with you FatBiker. I am also ashamed of what our country has become. We have allowed this to happen through our apathy. Nobody seems to care. It starts with our lack of enthusiasm to go to a simple meeting inorder to save our riding areas or favorite track from closure. I have seen this over and over on this and other dirtbike sites. It's like pulling teeth to get people involved in land issues even when they see their favorite riding areas being shut down.
It's even worse with politics. People think they can't make a difference or they are too wrapped up in their own lives to care. We can make a difference though. The Teaparty movement is proving that. If it wasn't, this administration would not be trying to demonize the Teaparty members so much.
If everyone doesn't step-up and become involved in politics, we won't even recognize this country in ten years. Just look at the freedoms we have lost in just the last year and a half. We have a chance to make some real changes in November. We had better do it and vote every incumbent out of office or shame on us.
If you want to see the future of America, look at what is happening in Greece right now.
