I reject the notion that apathy is the reason the rebellions of the Middle East have not spread to the west. Where I am from, US, the workforce must endure longer and longer hours for less and less pay. By the time people get home from work, so they can support their families, they have barely enough energy to think let alone educate themselves on the facts and their rights as individuals, citizens of the world. My idea would bring resources together to deliver truth where all others fail.
