My 2 cents worth . - Identify the enemy. Understand their agenda. Find their vulnerabilities. Exploit - but not in the way they expect.
You've got balls.
Righting a wrong against a bureaucratic regime is no easy task. This is straight out theft, to service a political agenda.
And they exploit the most vulnerable - with double talk and picking them off one by one. They assume that seniors won't form a network of others suffering the same fate. This works in their favour.
The answer is to find out who else is in this boat. Collective numbers give strength, rather than individuals fighting for their rights.
Media won't be touching this issue.
So you need to find hackers/meme artists/cost effective publicity groups to come up with solutions.
The catch is - DO NOT BLAME THE IMMIGRANTS. That's exactly what the bureaucrats want you to do.
Ridicule works. Like-
Thank you Social welfare for docking my power bill. It is important to steal my savings to help you buy a car for my immigrant neighbors.
Bureaucrats do not like being ridiculed.
The macro outlook- (global stage)
Understand that they are endorsing Kissingers mantra -
Control the food = control the people.
Control the energy = control the country.
Control the money = control the world.
The micro outlook -(your mother's bubble)
A layer of division has been deliberately inserted - to create anxiety, fear and despair. The bureaucrats can now claim that the immigrants need servicing first.
Resulting in righteous anger at the unfair treatment.
Take into account the risk/reward ratio - in whatever action you take. But yes they are head fucking your mother deliberately .
