PPK_WALTHER, this is not a time to behave like an ostrich.
Hello ppk_walther:
If we are going to work together on this, here few things you need to know about myself and the group of folks here:
We are not an ostrich. When we have a problem, we act, protest and communicate our concerns. It is not time to worry too much about whether Senators will listen or not to our concern. It is time to act. One thing is for sure, if our ancestors did not have hope and reinvindicated, fight for ideals, we would be in far worse conditions than in what we are today. As an analogy, can you imagine if M. Luther King just gave up on the fight for his cause because the white Americans ignored the blacks altogether ?
Yes, personally I estimate that our participation calling senators would count only 5-10% on the final outcome, whatever it is. You are correct, essentially America is driven by business sense. Our employer lobby is not supporting us strongly as it used to be, but fortunately institutions such as the US Chamber of Commerce and Compete America are still giving us some hope. If we achieved this small victory on October 20th, to a certain extent was also due to our participation educating and calling media and senators.
Now let's keep the focus and think positively. Thank you PPK_Walther (9mm or 7.65?)

ppk_walther said:Why everybody is talking about calling Senators? Why they should listen to you, you guys are no citizens of US. May be they will listen to u as courtsey.
But why would they take any action? They will not.
