"Two-thirds say they'll do it for a year's tuition. And for a few, even an iPod touch will do. That's what NYU students said they'd take in exchange for their right to vote in the next presidential election, a recent survey by an NYU journalism class found. Only 20 percent said they'd exchange their vote for an iPod touch. 66 percent said they'd forfeit their vote for a free ride to NYU. And half said they'd give up the right to vote forever for $1 million....but, they also overwhelmingly lauded the importance of voting."
I'm sure they did.
Did I mention my Uncle Rueben passed away a few days ago? He was a WW II vet. Interesting, because even though he fought his way across Europe, I'm not sure if he even knew what an iPod was.

Wow. Well if they won't vote, then I don't want to hear one complaining peep out of them the rest of their lives. *sigh*
