This is where most people err. They don't think they can change the world because they think too big. Of course you can't call Bush. But you can do something better and easier. Don't follow most of the laws, namely the "victimless crimes." When you can, don't pay taxes. If on a jury, don't convict the pot smoker or money launderer. Don't cooperate with police unless there is a real victim involved. Make it harder for the government to function. Question everything. When you can, use e-currencies. A little civil disobedience from a lot of people can do wonders for everyone's freedom by putting a bigger and bigger burden on government, which will put a bigger and bigger burden on society, which will foster more and more civil disobedience until... This requires a soul that craves liberty above all, a soul that feels pain when it senses injustice (even in little things), and a mind that is constantly vigilant. A lot of people, unfortunately, do not crave liberty, real liberty, and are too eager to give up liberty for any number of perceived short-term benefits. :( So, Justine, have you ever engaged in civil disobedience?
