Maybe we can use this?
Since ~~bribery~~ gratuities are legal now, apparently, and the Supreme Court is legislating everything from the bench, maybe we can pool a sort of PAC and put together a prize sheet for different positive things we want. If they rule for those, they get the prize indicated. Kind of like the prizes you'd get for selling certain thresholds during school fundraisers.
Also kind of like the Criss Points system:
Even if all the peasant in US united and pitched in, out collective buying power would still NOT be enough v top 10% but like even top 1%
Think about that.
Which is sad, but should remind some people it was a similar situation regarding the French Revolution. The less you have, the less you have to lose.
The French lived in dense areas with power centers nearby. We live in endless sprawl with a need to mobilize the guillotine, while our houses are made of artillery target toothpicks for a reason.
