I actually agree with Sobran here. The federal government is a behemoth that is rapidly fattening itself.

But instead of incessant whining and complaining about it, I'd rather do as the Declaration of Independence says: "When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."

Anything else is conjecture and not worthy of being heard, IMHO. I truly believe that changes can only come through the shedding of blood.

I'm not advocating overthrowing the government, either. That's sedition and our government is a constituted authority. But I don't see any other way to get off of the slippery slope.
