If in America, it would have to start with the workers banding together, collecting monies to start an organization/think tank, with philosophers, ideological professors, to start telling the people they are being used and abused by the government, you have to have accredited voices to be convincing

I agree with you to a point.  This government isn't that weak to listen to some protesters.  But they are doing something about it.  Other people gripe...and do...NOTHING.  That will really get you nowhere.  What are you doing about gas prices?  I know you're griping, but they you are, filling your tank up once more.  Protesters do something.  They gripe to the right people.  The media love this stuff.  Either that or a rescue story of a stupid dog.  \n\nEven though protesting gets you nowhere, doing nothing gets you some place worse.

I doubt it. As long as there are people who are trying to live the laws and be concientious about choosing people to represent them as they see fit, I don't think that a totalatarian government would be able to take over. If everyone were to become apathetic and not care, then it might be possible, but I don't see that happening. The beauty of the US government is that each person has the right to express their own opinions and can be totally within their rights. We can't be thrown into jail for our beliefs.

.... okay, from what I can make of this, here's my answer.\n\nThere is NO ruling party. There is a party that has Executive power, but overall, it's even.\n\nThere will ALWAYS be dissent among the population. Never will everyone agree. \n\nAnd, no. You can't take action against a party just because you don't like them. Everyone has a turn.

Lack of control of the situation.. People are afraid of what they can't control...

There is no hope. There is nothing you can do. American society is beyond the point of no return to government by the people, for the people, of the people. Now, government can do anything it wants with you, any time, any place. You need permission from the government to do just about anything. Government is supposed to be our servant, but has become our master. Government is supposed to fear the people, not the other way 'round.\n\nIf history is any guide, things get worse and worse until the society bankrupts itself, and can be "taken over" easily by other forces. Then a new society arises, with a rebirth of freedom, and eventually that society too destroys itself.

The government is run by the people, these days into the ground by liberals. Years ago the people trusted the government to run the country by the laws that were written. Now we look for a problem with whoever is President while letting Congress run amok. Laws are made by Congress not by the sitting President.

Finally, a good question.  Voting out the current dictatorship is the first step.  Stop voting Democrat or Republican.

We need stronger control over the ones we have before we start to think about ever adding any new ones.  Government has entered into too many area's of our lives and we need to get this under control as well.  Good government does not mean controlling people through a series of government programs that set people up to fail rather than succede.  We have developed a whole set of people who have relied on the government for their support for several generations setting up a whole segment of our population that believes they have been set up to fail.  We have a society where everyone should have the same chances at success as all others do, yet part of our society has been set up for failure due to these programs.  While they are needed they should be set up to assist people rather than become a way of life.

Assuming that you are referring to governmental acts, then you simply have to become politically active.  \n\nKnow what the issues are, not just listening to bumper-sticker statements.\n\nRegister to vote and vote in every election.\n\nFind other supporters of your perspective and lobby for its support.\n\nMore than anything else study what interests you.  For example, learn what rights are from a historical and constitutional perspective.  Learn how such were interpreted at various times in the past.  Find out “why” laws came into being and how you can work to change them if you don’t like them.  Run for office.  Volunteer for local commissions, and committees, and boards.  Become knowledgeable and involved.

Good question.  Keep the pressure on the politicians.  There are millions that feel as you do, you are not alone. In fact this may be the one issue that brings US citizens together.  This issue crosses all parties and most are mad as hell.

I am not comfortable with giving the government, with all the screw-ups it makes on a regular basis, that kind of power. You cannot bring someone back from the grave.

Actucally, you can avoid that. Stop working and become one of those on government support. For some reason that I can not comprehend the government thinks they have to support everyone who does not want to support themselves.

I think that the current government of my country is absolutely great!  The largest problem is the media.  Since free speech is allowed, the news media slants the news to try to influence others to the media's viewpoint.  However, if we want to preserve our right to free speech, we must all accept the media and their unethical tactics.
