Did I say that?
And what you think the simple people that started the revolutionary war didn't do the same thing against its government at the time? You never know pal.
They had a place to run, we do not.
You have to remember the MAJORITY of the population takes whatever the major news outlets say as gospel, even if they came out and said "we're paid by the government, you're all screwed, but don't worry it'll be alright" the people would still listen to them!
You wouldn't just be fighting the government, you'd be fighting a MASSIVE part of the population.
