With less than 1 in 5 Americans having confidence in government our garbage ruling class must learn to serve the citizens instead of oppressing them. If they do not they will be overthrown and suffer the consequences. No government can survive for long with that many citizens hating them. Revolutions are bloody and very hard on the ruling class.
If they do not they will be overthrown and suffer the consequences
The government knows only too well that nothing of that sort is going to happen, so they get by with whatever they can.
