Epidemic Blindness

Can you read this? Or is it rather that you choose not to really see it? Many people around the world are facing what I like to call the "blindness epidemic". This phrase kind of mirrors the saying it is hard to ignore the elephant in the room except for some reason people are having no problem ignoring it. In the U.S.A. people are so busy with their daily lives that they fail to really stop and notice what is going on around them. It seems that when there is a big problem, they can easily ignore it as long as it does not specifically affect their lives. One example is how the government is able to manipulate the view of the public when all the public really has to do to know the truth about what is happening is to just do their own research and gather information for themselves. I feel there is sooo much that people choose not to see and to be uniformed is to be blind. How long will the people walk around with their eyes covered and how long until this blissful ignorance becomes the tears of a dying nation?
So will you choose to see or continue to walk in blindness.
