Thread: For those who rant about the state of the government. What have you done to

change things?

Thanks, just wanted to see what people have to say.

Other than voting and calling my senators and yard signs and dragging the elderly to the polls and telling them who to vote for what else do you want me to do?

I'm running for local public office. No kidding.

Edit: And to the answerer above who stated that all politcians are corrupt, that's a BS generalization. Im running to fight corruption and stop waste. Hell, I'm not even accepting donations in my campaign. People like me want to make a real difference, and I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't slander that. Have a little faith, huh?

I vote

Spoken up about socialism for more than a decade.
Voted for the most ethical and least socialist democrat I could find each time, even knowing they would lose.
Devoted more than a thousand hours speaking up on the issue so far.

How about you?

I refuse to vote

vote.

write letters to my representatives.

I've been doing about the same thing Obama and all the shyster/politicians before him have done for "change."

Support the megacorporations and the business criminals!

Why do you want to know? I am a guitarist/songwriter and write songs we play live for people. We play heavy rock. You can probably guess what my lyrics are. Then I get all the liberals in the crowd to chant F**K 0bama, F**K 0bama and its a good time. Some of the band members hate it when I do it but oh well. Sure it takes some effort at times depending on the venue and how many liberals are there. Of course the right-wingers don't hesitate but in the end all the libtards join in the fun. I guess that explains how they are so easily manipulated. They go along with the crowd. Go figure.

I buy american goods, vote independent, and acknowledge that all politicians are corrupt. I also defend my ideas in practice, such as my refusal to hire illegals, so I built my own house. (2,500 sq. ft. = 8,000 dollars)
