This article makes me sad

Mostly because I can relate to the sentiment of many of the people quoted.

What do you think?

Part of me wants to stand up and fight for my community, country and planet and part of me wants to just move away from all of it. Problem is that the US is so powerful that I don't think there is anywhere on the planet a person could go to really get away.

This quote seems relevant:

Henry David Thoreau - "What is the use of a house if you haven't got a tolerable planet to put it on?"
