Make a difference
I'm seeing a lot of people on Facebook posting the supportive status statement:
No one should die because he or she cannot afford health care, and no one should go broke because he or she gets sick. (If you agree, please post this as your status for the rest of the day.
Good. We should all be aware of the ramifications of not going through with healtcare reform. But truly, how does posting a status message change anything. Shouldn't we be figuring out what we can do to support this change and help it move forward? Passive activism seems to be all too prevelent, and I am trying to understand what it does, save to assuage our guilt and make us feel better about ourselves.
Anyone?
