We can’t peacefully protest, our voice is being silenced, our vote has been taken from us, our “representatives” are constantly doing things we don’t want. I have a burning rage to get America back headed in the right direction but feel helpless to do anything. We need to take action, we are the majority. Anyone have an idea how we can band together and make real change because all I see is talk.

The government will do nothing you want it to do. The solution is to do ONE of the things you want to see, and make a business out of it. I thought about moving to Texas and trying to start a mint there for a new currency. You are legally allowed to produce paper money as long as it isn't Greenback (USD) counterfeit. You are not legally allowed to produce coins. The gov forces any new private mints to make fiat currencies only. That sucks, but I do wonder how enforceable that law really is.

You might be able to convince the gov that you're producing 'tokens' that can be used in a similar capacity to gift cards. There is history of private minting of coins in the US. The reason a certain private mint failed was because the gold and silver coins he produced were produced so inconsistently as to make the amount of gold in the coin more than the stated value of the coin. He went out of business because his coins sucked. Highly collectible now though.
