It would be nice if someone here could come up with something concrete besides contributing. Rather than wait for that, I also have created a pledge page <https://my.mayday.us/t/c257-Joseph-Spinden/> for anyone that would like to contribute to the Mayday Political Action Committee <https://mayday.us/>.

Dare I say, as expected, offered an opportunity to actual do something, many (the 91%?) keep explaining (debate back and forth) why one should do nothing.

With all the talent and expertise on this list, surely someone could help Larry Lessig succeed with his campaign? It's complicated/complex. Who's up to it? Remember, this was inspired <http://motherboard.vice.com/read/how-aaron-swartz-helped-inspire-lawrence-lessigs-mayday-pac> by Aaron Swartz.

    then compare that machine to data taken from the world and tweak
    the machine until it seems to work, then base our predictions off
    that machine.  [sigh] Sounds like science fiction to me!

Sound like history to me. Although there are a few things about our current situation that are unique enough to make it hard to draw comparisons.
