Controlling. Mmhm. That's why there's a open debate about gun control now, based on panels and talks with both sides...because, you know, that wouldn't want to seem biased or anything, while they try to sort that mess out? And that's just one mess out of many. That doesn't mean it needs to be overthrown.
Look at gay rights. Even things are swinging around that way, opinion is turning, and there's an opportunity for equality. Of course, like your civil rights movements and women's liberation movements, that takes time. And look, that happened without overthrowing the government. At least they haven't had prohibition again.
That's mind blowing, isn't it?
What's MORE mindblowing? Good gods, FEMA stepped in for emergency management. Far be it for them to do so, since it's EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT to help in EMERGENCIES. That is not an attempt to subdue you, or beat you down, or incarcerate you, or make you obey any outrageous order that isn't put into temporary place to keep the peace and keep the nutters from causing mass chaos and putting other people in harm's way. God forbid THAT happens, while a large portion of people had nearly lost their lives or were thinking they were laying in their deathbeds.
God knows, they stayed around FOREVER during that debacle that was Katrina. Oh, wait, no they didn't. Because they were poorly mismanaged then. Not exactly ruling over everything with an iron fist now, are they?
Who's going to oversee this education process? YOU and your FLOW CHART where the top of it is REPLACE OR OVERTHROW IT? Riiiiiiiiight. Because the government's ran by a big bad monarch who needs overthrown. Suuuuuuure.
As for your 'only a two party system' - get your officials elected or run for office. After this fiasco, I wonder how many votes you wouldn't get. And for your strictly two party system? I'd like to point out the havoc that getting tea partiers in office has caused. Not only for the opposing party but also for the original conservative party they were splintered off from, originally. BRILLIANT MOVE, REALLY. You actually have what's tantamount to a nutters third party in your system, right now. They're kind of reminding me of you, with the whole "get government out of our lives" mantra. Bravo.
Again, do society a favour? If they offer you the medicine to cure your flu, since you're so against the society as it stands? Please exert your RIGHTS to not take it, because it was pharmacies and the government and the medical profession as it stands, that helped get it to you.
