So far, this looks like an attempt to justify failure to participate directly in government.

But Fromzy, Failure, like success is relative.

If you're not going to go all the way (or the way others think you should go), should you just 'shut up and GET OUT of the way?

First, it isn't my job to clean up spills in supermarkets, they have employees to do that. So, there is value in alerting someone to it so other shoppers won't slip or fall.
Second, if I (me personally) see a woman being raped I would indeed intervene, and call the police and stay with her until they got there.
Third, I do vote, call, write and contact my representatives about issues. But "bitching", as you say, isn't the best avenue to get things done. Voice your thoughts and opinions, but be civil. Pissing others off doesn't work for your benefit or the thing you represent or want to be changed.
And one more thought. If you (or anyone else) doesn't take the time to vote, call, etc..you have no "bitch" as far as I'm concerned. As the saying goes,"Lead, follow, or get out of the way."
Anyway, thats my 2 cents worth, right, wrong or otherwise.
