The interesting thing to me is that nothing will change. We have gotten a glimpse into how messed up some things are but there's no public outcry for change. People just aren't upset about the stupid things governments do. Nobody really cares. It's a bit disheartening.

Because very few are capable of creating it. It's easy to find fault, but much more difficult to create a solution. That's why nothing is changing. No one wants the responsibility of doing it.

I'm not finding fault in anyone. My point was that talk of labeling Wikileaks as a terrorist organization or something evil are baseless when one considers that leaking these documents doesn't change anything. It's almost comical that the U.S. government raised a stink about this when the fact is that people don't care enough to demand change.

I do, actually. The road to such enfranchisement is long and hard, however. I still require:
* Independent funding,
* a bit of age to serve in the House and
* a broader social network.
None of these are easy to collect.
