So the question to us is, what are we going to do
about it? Right now in our rural community we're
taking the approach that we can make a difference
but that we're going to go about it by being
extremely headstrong in the wrong directions, if
you consider ill advised directions to be the best
ways to go? The best and brightest are advising our
leaders to attempt to go another way, but so far,
those consensus opinions are not being listened
to, and the ones who are going to pay for that,
I'm afraid, are the ones with no voice in it,
the students.
