Someone gave me the idea to join the Greens. But I"m only 17, and they have a membership fee, and I'm not entirely sure how often I'd have to pay. :P I took a look at the website and they seemed ot have good ideas, although admittedly I don't see any plans of action in relation to the economy or anything.

But at the moment it seems that they're the best for our country, because the Rudd Government--while they started the healing process for the Stolen generation and got rid of detention debts and those crappy Worksafe laws--don't look to be doing anything about the environment, and that's the most important thing right now. It's necessary for the survival of humanity, not to mention thousands of other species, that we stabilise our environment asap. :P That may sound a bit drastic, but I am thinking in the long term.

Bleh. Stupid politics. On the one hand, if people payed more attention to grassroots movements, a lot of good things would be done, but on the other, so would a lot of stupid things. Apparently, thanks to a grassroots movement of a looser sort than ones involving politicians and the like, Jedi is an official religion in Australia. How awesome is THAT? :D
