I read: that the American people may have misconceptions that cause discontent and that the Gov'ts job is to be open and in touch with the people in order to belay their fears and react accordingly. Otherwise, Americans may take up arms and rebel. However, in light of today's overload of misinformation on the internet, and the lack of general knowledge of how our government works (or doesn't work), I'm not sure that most rebelling Americans even know what they are rebelling against. The best way to revolt is to vote.
