I had this weird idea today

sathorIt's been almost a month and the state has yet to pass it's yearly budget. I know people who aren't getting paychecks - how are they supposed to survive?
The legislators and the governor are sitting pretty - there's no pressure on them to do anything. Even if the people pressured, they aren't required listen or to give a shit. They only have to worry about doing their job.
Why not? Why shouldn't I just drive down there and start a ruckus? When was the last time any one individual went and did something like that, just to see what would happen?
I haven't seen a single protest at the legislature yet. I haven't seen mobs of people, as there rightfully should be, nor have I seen even a small group. I see gatherings of people at their places of work. That's not getting any message across.
Besides that, the positive phase is waning a bit. Can't really help it. You can conceptualize positivity in a world of filth only for so long before it exhausts your psychic reserves.
I would like to stay positive, but I have to see more reciprocation. I'm sick of seeing people finding it out of the ordinary when a stranger walks up to them to get to know them. I'm also sick of women who apparently have such a fucked up ideal of a man built into their skull, they aren't willing to give just anyone a chance, even if that person is as unforgettable as I am (and I am...I can't think of a single professor that doesn't remember me, for instance, and just about anyone that was ever in my classes in college remembers me if they just happen across me.)
So what, I'm unforgettable, I'm in great shape, I'm intelligent, sensitive, caring. Okay, what the fuck is wrong with people again?
I don't want to start preaching that humans are fucked again, I really don't. Show me some proof they aren't. I've taken the first steps. I won't keep doing it unless I see something in response.
