"Screw what's best for the country as a whole, as long as I get free medical care, cell phone, internet, birth control etc" seems to be a resounding theme.
People understand nothing when it comes to Civic duty.
This.

Last friday at the bar 3 girls come in and talk to my buddies and I. They start going on about Obama and how they are going to vote for him and asking us if we are too. All my friends are conservative so we laugh and them and say not a chance. Then they proceed to tell me Romney is going to take away planned parenthood and how are they supposed to get contraception. That they are on Medicaid and all of them have at least 1 kid and how they can't afford to pay for that.
So I quickly cut them off and ask them how they could all possibly be out at the bar not watching their children and spending money on drinks when they can't afford health
insurance or contraception. All while they are each on their nicely decorated i phones.

They left right after that.
