Politicians


I actually respond to emails from pols, with little response. If you want me to donate money, with a minimum of $3, then respond to an email. What if I actually have something to say in response to the issues you're communicating? The message is clear: either give money or not; we're not interested in your input. We only want your money. I've entered for the trips to meet the president, too. Nothing. But we vote, and speak to the local pols, who humor us with results few and far between. We are to be considered lucky to get an answer. I hate to admit I'm tired and burned out by all of it. Why bother? Because some voice is better than none at all. It's not about me, it's about every other voiceless individual I can only help in limited ways, if then. I have to choose loyalties; there's only one of me.
