depends on your personality i guess. i was in yosemite sometimes when i was little - it's amazing, so i'd even go solo. don't remember, but is fishing allowed in the area? if so, there's no way to be bored... just bring a book.

What I've never understood is that the people in America who seem to oppose free healthcare are often the ones who seem to need it the most If I had to pay the full cost of my treatment...well I couldn't, it would be more than the average salary."Lots of people who think they are into fashion are actually just into shopping"

I would say it's a combination of both. It is absolutely no coincidence to me that Republicans are going after teachers. We already have one of the worst public education systems in the developed world, and it's about to get much worse. But you need idiots, so you can easily manipulate them. For the first time in my life I am starting to doubt that progress and enlightenment is a force that cannot be stopped. We are witnessing history in reverse.

Not saying everyone who holds these ideas are dumb, but both sides have their dummies and I don't think its that clear cut, tbh.

What ideas? I don't know of too many college students who are opposed to universal health care.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

Most of them are misguided and dont even know what they are proposing, as long as its with someone elses money. Not that I'm abhorrent to idealism, but sometimes the extent of these peoples beliefs are sometimes comical cuz they are without support.
