Yes, people can go down to protests, and take the time to do other things to help with a movement. But we in a movement aren't the ones elected in government that can make changes to make sure that something abusive like TPP doesn't get passed. But we need politicians that don't sound like they're working for us, and then actually work to push something like TPP behind closed doors against our interests.

I don't think anyone here wanting populist change expects all of these problems to be resolved tomorrow. But we need people who show their heart in an electoral process in wanting to work for us, not just using marketing language to try and make us think that their heart is with us when it isn't. That is the first part of the battle to take our country back. Without those in government that honestly want to work for us, fixing the system peacefully, incrementally, and in a democratic process will be impossible. The longer there aren't entities that can take these first steps, the more likely we'll head down something like a "French Revolution" path, where the whole process will likely be very destructive before it can be constructive, if indeed something constructive can come out of that sort of path. And then everyone will lose. But ultimately a path like that will likely happen if nothing is done to fix the downward path we're on now.
