It's from being compliant for nearly 250 years of following a flawed document without really reading and understanding said document. The writers of the document understood that one day it would be a useless due to the nature of people living under a government. The flaw with the document is that the instructions weren't clear enough.
"That 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."
"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. "
At any which time we have people governing our Nation who have a vested interest in reversing everything the Republic was designed to be. Grant you everything in life changes its just the natural order of things. As corruption has consumed our governments it has been know for quite sometime that leaders took advantage of the position to steal money and restrict rights that were never to be restricted. I believe a blind person can see what has happen.
Do we have 55 men with intelligence and a few who could pen the rules for the next 250 years. Now that we know what works and doesn't plus weeding out the fleecing of Americans.
If the corrupt would agree to step aside from from their financial windfall gigs by understanding that it would be better for the Republic instead of dividing a Nation,if not then like other before us bearing arms would prerequisite before the pens.
