Where to take complaints

Just spent a lot of very precious time screwing around with the tablet.  Accomplished nothing.

It seems to be a metaphor for the times.  You spend a lot of time on things that accomplish nothing.  There's no control.  This tablet downloads stuff I don't want, nor use, nor need.  It doesn't seem to allow you to uninstall any of it either.  So, the tablet's memory fills up and there's nothing you can do about it.  Lot of the same is true of our political system.  Choices are forced upon us that we don't want, nor use, nor need.  There's no way to change any of it except an armed rebellion, which nobody can lead, nor nobody can organize, nor nobody would participate.

As for that last sentence, what would happen if you openly started campaigning for an armed rebellion?  Is there a law against it?  The government can send armed agents after you.  Why do you have to accept whatever the government decides for you?  Isn't self-determination a right?  Seems to me that is what the Declaration of Independence said--- it is a right to throw off all government that wears off its welcome.

More than likely, no government will allow its own overthrow.  But the Constitution does provide a way to change this government.  Legally.  But nobody seems interested.  Don't all these people realize that they're just wasting time when they fool around with something that won't let you change it in any meaningful way?
