I'm loving this jackanape here pretending that the same people who hold all the effective power in the United States, largely corporations, wouldn't simply seize actual codified power if people just rioted and overthrew the government. That China and Russia wouldn't also swoop in and take advantage of any power vacuum. All three groups are vastly more organized compared to any progressive movement the extremely fractious American population is likely to form, a movement which also would be fought by the US military plus conservative militas. Progressives aren't very well armed in this country and that's unlikely to change any time soon, plus actual progressives are a minority. So this revolt would end up with a christofascist theocracy, fascist corporate dictatorship, a puppet government, or some mixture of the three. Gee, that sounds great.

Anyone with a few brain cells to rub together would look at countries also containing a plethora of similarly militant, fascist conservative groups which have somewhat recently overthrown their governments and asked two extremely pertinent questions: 

1) did they fix their issue(s) - generally no

And

2) is the new government any better - also generally no

While I'm soap boxing, I find it pertinent to point out that individuals who offer simple solutions for complex problems are frequently wrong. It's even more so for those who get all pissy and call anyone who asks questions about their vast oversimplification sheep instead of actually providing any pertinent responses. These people know so little about their own stance, they're actually unable to intellectually defend and support it.

I mean, think about it. In this context, what is a 'sheep'? It's someone who uncritically accepts information. You're upset people are not uncritically accepting your stance. You're calling someone a sheep... because they're not being one. You're not very bright, are you?
