"With respect to activism about reducing big government, I find myself slipping into a bit of 'learned helplessness'. That's why I'm going to attend an activism seminar. People from the media do read FR. Take writer33's essay about Rush for instance."
The activism part of FR is one of the things that makes it uniquely great. btw, a good activism course is the one that Morton Blackwell's Leadershipip Institute gives out. I got to go to one here in Texas earlier this year. There were several freepers among the crowd.
