The US Chamber of Commerce. Everyone should be aware of this entity and what it is. and who it votes for. NOW google all your State SUpreme Court Judges, Senators and Elected Officials. AND DO SOME DAMN RESEARCH ON THE PEOPLE RUNNING YOUR STATE. Look at not just WHO donated money for certain people running for the bench or office but WHAT ENTITY! Things like.. "Citizens of Ohio for Justice" "People for Reform" Etc. Now research those donors and see how many of those are create and run by the corporations that the US Chamber of Commerce Lobbys for. You all OBVIOUSLY have time to burn since your on GC so use that time to gain knowledge and know whose bought and paid for by whom cause if the youth would legitimately vote! WE COULD MAKE CHANGE HAPPEN! Stop talking about "There to big to stop" and "Theres nothing I can do" BECAUSE YES THERE IS!! Knowledge is power. Gain Knowledge and use that power to fight shit. Dont fight the system. Play the system.
dude its gonna take more than a bunch of potheads googling this shit to really make a difference haha yeae its def a starting point and im not arguing that, but fuck... i hate this shit and i wish we could do more right now!!
The reason i made this thread is because ive been taking a poll on the US Chamber of Commerce and almost EVERYONE ive asked if they knew what it was responded with something along the lines of.. "Its.. idk.. some govt agency"
Very well said. Be prepared to fight off the hordes of tinfoil hatters. The willfully ignorant run rampant on the internet, including this forum.
You wont when something crazy like a doctor trying to reap Medicare and Medicaid funds talks you into getting a pacemaker when you dont need it or severs a tendon making you paralyzed in one arm and you sue only to find out your voted for Tort Reform and Liability Caps. and low and behold your now million dollar hospital fees arent covered cause your state has a 250K Corporate Liabilty Cap.
People like you and their fear mongering, propoganda, AND ABSOLUTE NEED TO YELL ON THE INTERNET TO GET ATTENTION never GETS OLD.
Fear mongering is what suits do. Citizens who give a damn calling out their corrupt government is god damn respectable to me
Im not trying to scare anyone into doing anything lol If i wanted to scare people i wouldnt have told them how to research it on there own. I wouldve just shoved it in there faces using something like my home state as an example. Naw. I want people to learn how to learn to research.
It's too bad people are afraid of what they'll find and resort to calling truth-seekers fear mongers.
So do you understand the concept or do you only know how to google? Call OP a fear monger , just know you are afraid of the truth
Us adults already know how the world works. We don't need 100 threads on the [TRUTH] by a bunch of teen minded, pseudo-enlightened stoners who will talk. But none of you will go out and take what you want. You'll just keep talking and talking until someone else does the dirty work (fyi, they won't)
How do you "Take what you want" and how has that worked out for you? Im not preaching the truth man. Im telling people to go look up who runs there state and which one of them is run by corporations. Im trying to make even slight action happen by getting the youth involved. Were consistently the age group that doesnt vote in vast numbers. But in total we have the numbers to make change. Most of us just dont know what to change, how to change it, or where to start.
