13. Sometimes, when the government is unresponsive to the needs of the people...
...the people remember that they are the government ("by, of and for" ring any bells?) and take the delegated powers back into their possesion temporarily to do things that need to be done.

Welcome to America, land of the brave and the home of the free.


On a side note, it is remarkable how much average people will put up with before resorting to such drastic, but neccesary, measures.
