I also think most of us are law abiding, decent folks who believe such protests would somehow be wrong. So we shut our mouths, go to work and keep paying through the nose for the irresponsible. The dictators in Washington are counting on us to keep on doing so.

I agree, but also I think it is partly due to the tendency of people in the US to “not get involved”. It’s much easier and safer to sit on the sidelines and watch someone else do it. Even if there were a violent attempt to overthrow the government, regardless of macho internet bluster the vast majority would not get involved until they are led away in chains. The government is very well aware of this.
