I was sitting here thinking as I was browsing other topics, that the '06 and '08 elections will probably be either the most or the second most important elections of this century. Are world is coming to an end as we know it. If the right officials are not elected(and I don't necessarily mean Dems or Repubs), our world will end as we know it. Many issues, such as discrimination and bigotry, have come around full scale these last couple of years.There have been tons of political cover ups. There has been a largely growing nationalism, and many other thing.
*Global Warming: If the right people aren't elected, the current generation and future generations will greatly be affected, with the "It won't affect me, so why do I care?" type of thinking. C02 emissions are growing rapidly, and many of Mother Natures creatures are perishing with it.
*Foreign Policy: What we decide to do considering Iraq, will affect how the U.S. is viewed as a world superpower. If we continue to kill innocent civilians, it will show the U.S. as corrupt and power hungry. We would be turning into the enemy we were trying to fight.
*Inflation: With the growing national debt, inflation is rising. This will affect EVERYTHING. Especially with the minimum wage staying at it's current rate, people are rapidly falling below the poverty line. They are unable to support themselves and their families. This country would start to have a lower quality of living, possibly making us a 2nd world country(get used to the term).
Any other objects you can think of I will add. I know there are many more, I just don't want to take up more of your precious time. Thanks for reading.:)
