I cannot find the statistics to back this up at the moment but I heard that only 20% of 18-22 year olds bothered to show up and vote. Apparently the parties and protests are more important than their futures.
I cry out to you "this is your country! It is your responsibility to step up and knowledgably decide what type of country you wish to live in." Put down your toys and better prepare yourself for the 2008 election (if there is one) so that when the other 80% of you are 22-26 perhaps you will take your future more seriously, study the issues, and make an effort to see this country governed instead of dictated.
