I completely understand where you're coming from. I'm tired of fighting this crap, too. It all seems futile, really. Stupid usually wins the day, while thought goes out the window.

I'm still gonna fight, though, no matter how I think this will turn out. I would be forever angry with myself if I didn't do anything and we lost our rights. It's much easier to live with "Well, we did our best," than "I wonder what would've happened if I'd done just a little bit more to help."
