If you are living in this country and paying taxes, you have a right—rather, a duty—to become involved in helping to shape the decisions that determine how your tax dollars are being spent. If enough citizens protest against the policies that direct tax dollars towards endless wars, rewarding the greed and imprudence of venal financial institutions, and subsidies for undeserving corporations, the money will stop flowing in those directions. Similarly, if enough citizens demand jobs programs, enhanced public education and universal healthcare, those demands will be translated into public policy. Do not wallow in the despair of hopeless inaction. Add your voice, dollar and vote to the many groups and organizations that are challenging the militarism, reckless corporate greed, racism and selfishness, which are sweeping this country. Get involved in the politics of your town, state and the nation. However, do so with a plan.
