Consider that politicians don't return phone calls or answer questions. They vote on bills they don't read and even when constituents raise objections, they vote what they think benefits them within the realm of the political elite. Consider that professional football teams (and probably other sports teams as well) pull top athletes from play long before they've secured a win (even to the extent they're willing to lose), just to avoid what "might" happen.
Sports teams aren't concerned about the paying customer. Politicians aren't interested in doing what's right for the people, their state or the country.
I have heard people say they don't voice their opinion because they don't think it'll make a difference. Thank God the people who fought for our independence more than 235 years ago didn't think that way.
