It's the people who are not satisfied with the status quo that make the sacrifices and push for a change for the better. So in this instance your attitude is fueling the complacency of the masses. Go look at any of the uprising countries; the ones protesting are the ones who matter.
how did i say anything about being stisified with the status quo? my point was to not take this isolated incident and judge the whole country on it.
You don't leave a country if you disagree with a few things; you vote to change the way things are doneif you have faith in the ones you vote for, and they dont have seperate interests.
