A very simple question.
Should I, as a citizen, be concerned about what's happening to the world? I know I don't feel right when I ignore society's problems as I might have my rights infringed. But, I look around some of my people who're ignorant and they seem happy. Is this constant concern beneficial, after all?
Sometimes I really think that people that voluntarily or involuntarily ignore just have it better in life. I wouldn't choose it like that, but still, I would try it for a while, just for a piece of mind. But it's not just global events, those types tend to ignore anything that is not directly affecting them, and even then, their (sometimes) happy-go-lucky mentality can bypass the issue at hand.
