Do we really understand the tipping point to start the American Revolution against England? What were those circumstances and how similar are they likely to be in the near future?

People wrongly assume that we live in a democracy, but we live in a representative democracy. Once we elect our representative, they are free to destroy us, punishable only by being thrown out of office after the fact.

They do not need to listen to us if they think their goals are more important than what the people want.

What would have to occur before the public became violent, on either side? What right will be the last straw when taken away.

Who will be the leaders to lead from the front?

Why do we even have rules for these people who pretend to follow?

I worry for my country. I hope blood will not run in the streets if the Senate uses the 51 vote conciliation route. 73% of America is happy with their insurance coverage. The start of Civil War 2? One never knows what spark will light that match.
