Definition - #301 - #55 - "National Indifference"?

What is “National Indifference”?
For a Nation to have scholars who know more and write exactly what “they see and feel”, and to have T.V. programs devoted to what “they see and feel”; and not to move to eradicate these monstrous conditions is a wonder.
What could be a cause of the “National Indifference”?

Could it be that these “listeners” of this readily available information are listeners “only”.
Could it be that these “listeners” are satisfied with “listening” only?
Could it be that these “listeners” are afraid to lose what they already have?
Could it be that these “listeners” don’t know what to do?......whether to take up arms and kill somebody or take-up some group or do something!
Could it be that these “listeners” are confused as to what comes next or what to do as a next step?
Could it be that these “listeners” consider this task too complicated, to complex for any human mind, so they just give up…. “National Indifference”!

Could it be that “National Indifference” is a way to escape responsibility?
Could it be that these “listeners” are a separate group of people and consider themselves separate from other Americans?
Could it be that a solution of “more and better” education for the general public is only a dream of the future?
Could it be that the key is indeed too complex with budgets, politics etc. for the human mind?

In light of the poverty in the world, the poor education, the forcefulness and greed of the dictators of the world, the adverse direction to material progress in many Nations of the world, etc.; all this has no real meaning.
The few who want to “do” something to allieve the obvious pain and suffering in the world ought to just “forget it” and join the others in “National Indifference”! After all, “National Indifference” is a solution!

There is a “leadership” question here. Isn’t “leadership” supposed to answer these questions? Do we have the right to expect “leadership” to give us practical answers to some of these questions? Is the “leadership” we voted for have some of these answers or are they just as powerless as we?


What can we expect?

Is it time for a “General Public’ makeover?
