While in theory I agree with you, in reality I don't. Go ahead and try to stop anything that is going on. Start a movement and act on something. Defy paying your taxes or refuse to go to war if you are in the military (or if you are drafted), then see what we permit them to do.

It used to be a government for the people, by the people. Now... we are just along for the ride.
