Yes most people dont care about what is going on in their world in the 2000's. Look at pathetic voter turn out rates. When you have the attitude that the student government and the newspaper will take care of your problems for you, and you shouldnt have to worry about them, Big Brother would be very happy with you indeed. You have now reached the point of carefree apathy, where anything can and might happen to you, with no say. This goes beyond the college world but happens to extend out to the real world as well.
Thankfully our founding fathers didnt have the attitude that they should keep on paying taxes to the King, because it was the 1700's and paying homage to the royals in England was the thing to do, I mean all of the other parts of the British Empire did, why rock the boat?
In closing I suggest that you add the following books to your community college reading list, perhaps they have them in the library.
"Animal Farm" by George Orwell
"Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley
"Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury
