the founders knew there would be people that sought to take over the government, to enslave, and to abuse it. They even remarked a revolution once a generation might be necessary to secure freedom.

The Framers were wise. They knew we'd eventually reach this point, hence their remark. I'm sure they'd be aghast that we've endured this extent of abuse without revolting.

“I’m sure they’d be aghast that we’ve endured this extent of abuse without revolting. “

I think we can look at ratios here. They had from about 1735 to 1775 to revolt and only needed minimal supplies to then revolt. We have to have far more supplies that are much more expensive and we need much more of it all. We have had about, just my opinion, from 1965 to coming up on 2015 to get ready. I think a revolt is coming, but certain things must be in place and happen for it to be a prepared and moral uprising.
