What stands in the way of people taking back the country by force?

I would say it's mostly people not wanting to overthrow the government with force. (Second place: standing army.)

sorry to ear all of that... where are you living? I guess it isn't allowed by your gov to tell, so maybe a few tips on where it is...  Embarrassed

I'm a citizen of a country made up of 50 states...and it has an eagle as its national bird Wink

Though I do not live there...I still am required to bribe the politicians in order to freely exchange my services for money.

What and who is oppressing you, and how? What do you understand by "politicians"?

There are many things. I would love to freely exchange my services in exchange for money. This is not allowed by my government.

I would love to send my fiat money to a bitcoin exchange without the need to send proof of my identity and bank statements and phone verification. This is not allowed by my government.

I would love to freely rent my house out to people in exchange for money. This is not allowed by my government.

I would love to buy an item and pay the price that the shop owner is charging. This is not allowed by my government.

And on and on...

Sure, these things can be done as long as you bribe the politicians so that they can have more power to prevent people from freely doing these things.

U.S. Soldier's Creed

I am an American Soldier.I am a Warrior and a member of a team.I serve the people of the United States, and live the Army Values.I will always place the mission first.I will never accept defeat.I will never quit.I will never leave a fallen comrade.I am disciplined, physically and mentally tough, trained and proficient in my warrior tasks and drills.I always maintain my arms, my equipment and myself.I am an expert and I am a professional.I stand ready to deploy, engage, and destroy, the enemies of the United States of America in close combat.I am a guardian of freedom and the American way of life.I am an American Soldier.

I don't see the politician part, and if they or any become what will be mentioned here after:

United States Uniformed Services Oath of Office
I, [name], do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.[1]

Logically and rationally if one politician becomes a domestic enemy, he be the contrary of protected. However you have to understand that sometime, letting the domestic enemy roam free, can have multiple advantages for further tactical use. It may explain the disturbance that you feel in the force Wink.

They are already being used to protect the politicians.

You think the people enjoy being oppressed? What stands in the way of people taking back the country by force?

Hint: standing army

Only the hypocrites and the poor country says that we do not need a standing Military.

The United States of America has a standing military for that same reason it is no longer a confederation.

Constitutionally the USoA, don't need the kineticest army on Earth for fun ( Roll Eyes ), and so came the concept of militia (aka the millennium falcon in starwars  Wink), and so why the need to move to an army type Star Destroyers to retake the analogy Huh. For one simple question, some people wanted to "prohibition trading"  Shocked Lips sealed Cry. The Market had to take care of itself Cool. And so the Imperial Fleet was created Cheesy. Of course they are risks Undecided, but under the guise of the C&BoR Cool, they are worth it Grin, when taking the event of realization of prohibition Shocked. United we stand Wink. And let me tell you Roll Eyes, it wasn't a fiction in those days Tongue, it had happened in others countries Embarrassed.


 Shocked

Wait, wait...

 Cool

There.  Okay, now I can read this.

Edit: We need a military to protect Dantooine from Russia.

I think the US needs their army to defend against people who use too many smilies.

I could be wrong though.
