1st bag fee - how to protest?

I think it's unanimous - not many of us like the 1st bag fee that most airlines are now imposing. The 2nd bag fee is annoying, but somewhat reasonable... however, many people need to check at least one bag, and it's unfair to stiff them with the first bag fee. That's my opinion, anyway. I know maybe many of you are frequent flyers, and therefore exempt from the fees, but c'mon... it's just plain stupid. Especially with all the security restrictions in place.

So, how would we be able to effectively change the airlines' position on the 1st bag fee and get them to either waive or at least reduce greatly the 1st bag fee? (e.g: offer a discount online)

Thanks for your suggestions!
