Why do people that despise government vote for politicians instead of doing something on their own?

Question

Do, they not understand that there are other forums to bring fourth their ideas? Why are we such a repressed society only worshiping corporations and the wealthy?

Answer 1

All politicians were once ordinary citizens who decided to do something. I, myself, have run for office several times (not having won yet) and have at lease had my voice heard.

It takes the citizen/politician to run this country. (the U.S. that is) The more of us who are out there risking humiliation, and sometimes even our lives, the more likely we are to improve things for the future.

The last time I ran for office, I had to sell my motorcycle to pay the qualifying fee. Not every politician is wealthy and not every politician owes allegiance to big corporations.

There are many ways to make a difference, but someone has to be in the middle of it all to get the job done.

Answer 2

Good point.Understand your frustration. There is indeed something they can do which is type up computer graphics draw up a rectangle on screen then fill in numbers and make a separate currency based on their job or area of expertise.

There is also this what people can do is set up the forests so they can have hundreds of generations of people living in carved trees which have grown large as they have not been cut down.  Trees like The Druids did or at least something akin to tree worship of trees is a possibility. There are Neo Druids who would like the idea of house trees or Tree Houses I think.
