I tried protesting too. It didn't seem to make any difference.
I can't see how a new political party would help, there are already some that align with my views (and for whom I voted) but they weren't elected. Starting another one would surely just split their vote further.
Striking would only hurt my employer, who seem to have very little to do with it. It's pretty impractical given that no union exists in my industry (and yes, I have tried to form one; no-one seemed interested).
Where could I emigrate that doesn't act the same way?
I've tried to push back, really I have. I can't see how to change things. It can't be my responsibility when I have no control over it.
