- specialist 8y agoDude. I feel like you need a bro hug more than advice. Don't despair. My friends work on and have milestone achievements on marijuana legalization, marriage equality, campaign financing, DREAM ACT, family leave, increasing the minimum wage, etc, etc. The biggest impact any of us can have is on the local level. The cliche is that states are incubators of democracy. Well, cities are the incubators of states. While the federal government is AWOL, it's left a huge vacuum, which many states, counties, cities have chosen to fill. The opportunities have never been more insurmountable (h/t Yogi Bera).
