Everyone stops talking when they get punched in the mouth.

Just a weird observation that sprang to mind

I know people like to get angry and kick things, but i guess it's not very effective. I.e., would that really improve the world long-term?

If not, then why do it? Shouldn't we focus on actual measures such as demanding tax reforms from our cities and local governments? Shouldn't we invest our power into researching workable economic plans for our community? Why waste it with anger, that is like a wind that soonishly turns into thin air.

Demand away. When words fail. Then act
