Without sounding like someone who is on a downer on young people,yes. It is. You haven't realy experienced the effect of governments as yet I assume, and nor should you have.
However, as the old maxim goes, from small acorns do great oak trees grow. No, you won't see a change overnight barring a miracle/catastrophe. However, by spreading the word, you can make a difference.
You for example could go away and talk to a few friends about it who get it, they could go and talk to a few friends who get it, etc, etc. The biggest problem that people have today, not just young people, old people are the same is the apathy and the acceptance of the Status Quo.
If it weren't for us just accepting it, there would be no Francis Rossi or Rick Parfitt.
Jokes aside, yeah, it might not work, but wouldn't it be better to fail trying to do something you believe in than to never even bother and bitch and moan about how things are?
