#Check the orgs behind petitions you agree on and consider volunteering - it takes long years and multiple attempts to get anything done

Worth making the difference as well that this is not your usual online petition with no promise anyone does anything with - but an official initiative EU HAS TO deal with if it gets enough support! They can not just throw it in the trash!

It‘s scary to see how very important european petitions get no visibility whatsoever. We had a basic income petition last year which failed because not enough people knew about it. Now we have a „tax the rich“ one that only lasts until october this year and only has around 250k out of 1 mio. signings.

Most EU people go through their every day life w/o knowing about them. There are no ads, no marketing…nothing. I know that costs money though one might think important petitions that lead to a better and progressive life would be supported by the government or ministries in some way, but nooooo

And why should they? It’s petitions that would help out the poor and middle class, but endanger capitalism and their exploitation, sooo: government and business leads for example.

So here the link for those who are interested:
