This is exactly the issue. This is supposed to be a government for the people by the people. If the government is not serving our needs then it is our duty to overthrow the current government and start a new one. Thus the question comes back to this. "Is this type of tactic good or bad for the American people and our country?"
I'll leave you with this quote i'm sure you have seen before.
Quote:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
