Angry at the government

It is often reported that Americans are angry at their government and want a change. There is good reason for that. But...

How many of them vote regularly?

How many of them know who their elected representatives are and contact them regularly?

How many of them pay their taxes faithfully?

How many of them vote for projects that focus on the common good?

How many of them volunteer their time to make their communities better?

How many of them depend on government support for disabilities, Social Security, Medicare, Medicare, WIC, fair housing, flood insurance and more?

We are a government of the people. The government is us.
