75. Thank you. I just need ot say, in response to some of the above posts...
There's nothing heroic about this... I'm just angry, no... enraged.

I'm glad you got to let it out. :hug:

I do not, however, advocate emotional outbursts in public.
As one poster upthread suggested, it is imprudent to appear 'hysterical' over these issues as it will sow apathy for your cause.

Instead (and contrary to what the aforementioned poster assumed), I speak very rationally and matter-of-factly about these issues while on the phone and in public places.
I recite excerpts, explain ramifications, and occasionally mention how sad it is that no one seems to be aware that our government is selling us out.

The results are not always obvious, but I know how important it is to shake the sheep.

Even if only one wakes up because of my efforts, it's worth it.

Thank you, I may take you up on your offer.
