sure, but they generally fall deep within my priority list.
Mind you I used to call Hillary and Schumer's offices on a regular basis to tell them how I felt they were doing, how I wanted them to vote on particular issues. Did anything really change? Maybe.
But it didn't change if my bus was on time, if I could hear the subway announcer, stopped the high woman from showing some father her genitals in front of his family and verbally abusing them. It didn't alter how much my milk and eggs cost.
Looking at this from the perspective of an average city dweller, we have an opinion but we also have the practicality of how much time willing to invest to actually affect a change. For most it's quite low.
