Don't know about SC but I am pretty active in left wing politics myself. But I am also pretty sure that not everyone on here agrees with us so just saying that the reason the world is like it is is because we are not trying hard enough is probably not entirely true.
Also, referring to the representatives. They have just as much a vested interest in keeping the system the way it is as anyone else in the established order. Talking to them will not do a blind bit of difference. And I could vote for another one - were it not for the interesting two party system we have.
I place no trust in my representatives whatsoever to carry out my wishes, and neither do many on the left wing.
