By any means necessary.

Also, the government that governs best, governs least.

The checks and balances that were put into place to control, and prevent the
misuse of power by the elected officials have been circumvented, and jumped
over so many times now as to be effectually non-existent. The result of
course is a government that no longer represents the people, but vested
private interest.

The worst of it again is that we continue to suffer under this ludicrous
system and fail to do anything except complain about it. Hell, half of the
people don't even vote anymore because they are convinced that one crook is
as bad as another. While this may be true, the politicians have created
requirements that almost guarantee that normal people can't seek public
office.

Somebody once said that a little revolution every now and then is good for
the soul. I for one am beginning to agree.
