But I m sorry to say my friend that many ideas just float in the air. The ideas are also stollen many a times.You think, we arent tryin?? well, we are..someday, hopefully, our voices wont be supressed.<BR/>The media here mostly focusses on issues that will gain them publicity. The political parties will create issues so that their parties are talked about. The youngsters do burge in at times. But then on the longer run, they are forgotten.No one likes to quit, sometimes circumstances make them do it. No, I am not a quitter.<BR/><BR/>Overall this was an Impressive article...PJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09396536417815787442noreply@blogger.com
