"... 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."
This is one thing I like about your country. But sometimes I wonder, how do you know when it is time for the people to alter or abolish the government, and most of all... how?
...are governments doing their best to control media. This time it is the Internet. Here in Sweden we actually have a law commonly known as PUL, and among other things, it forbids us to publish any information about any person without his/her consent, on a webpage. This has some nice side effects, such as it is now impossible for people to publish their opinions on politics and politicians online, for example. Although, I doubt it is a side effect. I think they all know what they are doing. Eventually, every country in the European Union will have to have such a law.
But, we get the society we deserve.
Just too bad that *everyone* gets something that *others* deserve, too.
