Where do the Youth go next?

I read this article this morning and decided to quickly vent.

What are we thinking about? If we keep cutting education, cutting jobs, and cutting programs for at risk youth how will anything change? Obviously if kids believe their future to be bleak, why bother with school or anything! If all the media likes to portray is the end of the world in 2012 and pain, suffering and misery, then should we really be surprised why kids are so disengaged? It's almost as if the powers that be truly want our society to fall apart. How do you bring down a society without war, you make the future generations useless and dreamless!?

Without youth to fight for change and to lead us into the future we don't stand a chance. Maybe if more youth were taught how to work for themselves or become entrepreneurs then the unemployment rate wouldn't look so scary. What if we took more time to communicate with each other we could come up with better ideas as a group! There is always the possibility for change and it comes from within each and every one of us. We must come back together like communities of old and prove that there is strength in numbers and we can make anything happen when we try.
