    So you think the government in the United States of America is so afraid of its constituents that they are not raising the taxes.

    What about all the other countries in the world that have less or similar taxes like the states but no 2. amendment? Are they completely reliant on sending strongly worded letters to the newspapers? Or do you think in a functional democracy there might be other ways for constituents to wield power?
