They're doing this in the town over from me. There's already been people brought up on bribery charges and it's still going through. There are not elections here, just appointments and nobody runs against you. If you notice a common theme all these battery factories are being built in forested, rural areas. The one here is being built ON a wildlife refuge!
Walk-in appointments must stop. People must run for office and contest them strongly. Publicize like hell. You are sunk if you can't find enough people to join together. I faced something like this in my union: walk-ins elected to office at the beck and call of our Executive Director (a hired staff member).
We have to start picking people from amongst ourselves and supporting them, not just with votes and support but financially as well. Most of us whom carry these opinions and want change can't just walk away from our jobs and leave our families to starve. Change begins when we make it happen.
Exactly. When we start thinking that way, we begin to get sensitive to how and when we are able to do something. I always recommend "start easy...but start." Some campaigners want you to become a total cult convert and overturn your life---but all that does is turn people off. Or burn them out.
