I couple weeks ago I posted a thread regarding my urge to leave my homeland, the U.S., after being drug through nearly four years of G. W. Bush. The old cry of "love it or leave it" had finally overwhelmed me. But I got to thinking, surely there must be a way to FIX it. I've voted, been to my share of protests, and generally tried to live my life in a way that reflects my values, but nothing seems to change.
So the question is; What are your experiences with politacal action, good or bad? Have you been able to make a difference? Was it worth the effort? Share your experiences/advice. |
