I don't think most people can stop buying comcast if they want internet, as a counterexample.
I would say this - there's a good argument that our representatives are WAY WAY out of touch, simply because we don't have enough of them. In 1790 there was 1 congressperson per 33,000 people, and now it is per 800,000 people. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_congressional_apportionment#Controversy_and_history https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_congressional_ap...
If you had a congressperson with 1/20th of the constituents, they'd probably pay a lot more attention to you.
