Sorry, it really doesn't work that way here. People only have the capacity to accept the status quo and use whatever resources are available to them given their socioeconomic standing, which is fluctuating.
Community based and state sponsored programs in the US are more often than not for show and nothing more.
The rest is "oh, yeah, I voted for that". 30% of the time something that's good for for society might go through.
There is far too much corruption in our system for the people to make a dent. That's just the way it is.
