      Why Americans Will Never Revolt Against Government

      admin | Aug 22, 2010 |
      You will not like these facts but if you have been frustrated as to why people don’t get mad as hell and revolt against government, I have written this to explain it. It is so obvious that I will be surprised to receive any intelligent disagreements. Hang on…

      50% of adults work for government at a local, county, state or federal level, or for a corporation that has a contract with the federal government. None will bite the hand that feeds them.

      10% are unemployed and will not bite the hand that feeds them.

      15% are on welfare and will never ever bite the hand that feeds them.

      20% are getting or within a few years be getting social security and will never bite the hand that feeds them.

      That leaves 5% that are not being fed by government and are used to feed the other 95%. However, due to social norms and media spin along with the fear that it would only get worse if they do rise up against government, they too will never revolt against government. The only chance for these 5% to become unburdened, is for a worldwide economic collapse in which the other 95% die off and loose their ability to control a system that funds their free ride on the back of the few. So, ask yourself—- how bad do you want to be free Jack? I say, absolutely free.

      Good post, and most wont revolt out of fear. And others because it's hard to get a collective group, especially against a government that has gotten to be so big. But I'll be right there within the R3volution when the time comes!!

      I can't see it happening either, not after watching Americans hand over their guns to the Louisiana police and national guard in New Orleans. That was proof enough for me that people will not stand up for their Constitutional rights when the government has a gun pointed at them. Thankfully the supreme court of LA ruled in favor of the Constitution and said that can never be done again. Lol, next time though it will be at the Federal level. I wonder if that was simply a test for the government to see how the citizens would react when demanded to turn over their guns? Perhaps a bit conspiratorial but I wouldn't be surprised, especially with this administration. And that was a southern state which you would think would have people not willing to give up there guns so easily but every one of them complied. I also wonder if it is legal for the police to pound on your door with a loaded automatic weapon pointed at you when you answer, even though you have not broken any law or threatened to use force. Not to mention the fact that they busted in the doors in the homes where nobody answered, again unconstitutional, but hey, it was for their own safety right. Why would anyone need a gun during a disaster that brought about looters. That gun confiscation has to be the most disturbing action any government in this country has ever taken in the history of the US.
      Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master. George Washington

      me and bobby mgcee, freedoms just another word for nothin left too lose

      whatever your pov or background we all come together over money, the ties that binds, thus government is like beaver, it can build a damn to flow money where and when it pleases

      just look at greece, 3 mild protests over the govt blowing up

      social unrest is the fear of the government as long as money flows, ie, the banks are open, mostly time will heal wounds

      Sadly too is that the Gov is one of very few sectors growing right now. As they grow, more support in the form of tax dollars is required. The fat get fatter and the rich get richer
