Write Letters to the Editir of your local newspapers, too. Yes, I know the newspaper is a dying medium, but it still Carrie’s AOME reach, and I understand the Letters section is the most widely read part of the paper. If you get published, your message reaches thousands or tens of thousands. Seeing that someone has the courage to speak out, can give others courage to hold a conviction. It will wake up some of those still asleep, and, even if not published, will show the editorial staff that the people care. You might get their buy-in if letters on the topic keep arriving.

So-called leadership might or might not respond to your messages, but your neighbors are more likely to at least consider what you have to say.

Do not sign up for, or cancel store accounts that allow you to load digital coupons, and fill prescriptions through an app. Forgo the coupons, and pay full price if you have to. These types of accounts are created to track your purchases, and access your personal information. Dump your Sam's Club and/or Costco memberships or don't renew them. Go inside a physical brick and mortar store to shop. They want us all shopping on Amazon, cancel that account or don't create one in the first place. Ask businesses for paper statements, even if they charge a monthly fee. Skip the body scanner at the airport. It may be more convenient, but it is an invasive, cancer causing procedure. You may have to be subjected to the humiliation ritual of being physically searched, but it's better than having big brother scan your internal organs. While you're being physically searched tell the TSA agent you'll pray for them, and inform them that God says we should love our enemies.

It works just like drugs if you don't start you won't be faced with having to figure out how to stop

You know what would really get a lot more people to address these issues? If there was an template available that could be used as is or modified to contact Legislators.

Richard A. Werner is one of the real sober voices in this universe of finance. Worth exploring.
