The only thing you can change NOW is you. The end result of this, providing people don't quit just because protestors have to at some point return to their lives, will be a shift in social perception. This very simple tool has shaped all of human kind. It is what keeps women at a disadvantage, minorities, and empowers every form of discrimination. Nationally, companies spend an enormous amount of money every hour on this tool. It has shaped the world without your participation. This tool is now your tool.
Speaking of tools...
I must agree. The single biggest change this country needs is for the population to free itself from the fog of rampant consumerism. If we can do that and get back to some of the basic ideals of previous generations like caring for our neighbors and communities maybe we can get this country back on track before it's too late. Assuming it isn't already.
