Calling your elected representatives daily is more effective. The app 5 calls makes it easy.


Unfortunately, mine very proudly proclaim how much they agree with what's going on. And they're also very proud of gerrymandering the state so they don't need to listen to anyone.


Unless you are in a swing district that isn’t gerrymandered to death, your representative could care less about what you think. Their first objective is not to get primaried.

The biggest check on the administration is the Senate which confirms executive nominees. The Senate is definitely not “representative” of anything when Wyoming gets two Senators just like California.


5 * 0 is still 0. They aren't listening.


6. Public health emergencies like a deadly, highly infectious pandemic require emergency measures. Quarantine the infection to reduce the spread. Spend public funds to create and deliver vaccines. Prohibit access to public resources like schools without proof of vaccination.


6. There are no silver bullets. People have the right to assess their personal risks & do not have the right to coerce others. During the time of pandemics, irrational fear is high. Solutions offered as silver bullets should be viewed with increased scrutiny.


Another feasible option is finding a niche market and publishing quality books that are either new or out of print to build that community. https://lostartpress.com/
