When do those of us working and earning and raising kids have time to protest?
That is the advantage the left has —- lots of childless man-children with loads of free time on their hands.
It’s why I vote, and why we have been cheated out of its power.
I guess when we are all unemployed under leftist policies, we can protest then.
I use my vacation time, weekends. I've taken unpaid time off as well. There was a time when I didn't have a cellphone, so I could use my money elsewhere. That included protests during the Tea Party era. I'm not saying you should do this. I'm just saying what I did to make it work.
The Founders, many of whom had more children than we did, found time to do it. And they had jobs and a brutal king to deal with.
"It’s why I vote, and why we have been cheated out of its power."
I agree. But the math doesn't work. It is 729 days from one election until the next election. If we are silent for those 729 days, do we really deserve our Liberty?
I can't say I'm ready to answer that question with a yes. Conversely, with protesting we haven't been cheated out of its power - there are simply who choose not to use it.
Money is power.
If you can’t show up in person, protest with your wallet.
People who put their money where their mouths are can move mountains.
