Here lies the problem, with complaining to Government about your grievances.
Government has a way of shutting you up. Retaliation comes swift.
People that expose the corruption, are hit with "LAWFARE" Threats of violence, their families harassed and even found dead.
People no longer consent to be governed. They are today forced with threats of violence, to do as government says, as if you are their PROPERTY.
The Founding of American Law:
Freedom is, unlimited choices for every human
Liberty is, one's ability to choose for themselves, from the unlimited choices, as long as those choices DO NOT threaten, harm, or take, another person's LIFE, LIBERTY, PROPERTY, or GOOD REPUTATION.
Today our local, state and federal governments, on a daily basis, threaten, harm and take, peoples Life, liberty. property & good reputation with impunity to keep you in their control.
They have restricted your freedoms and taken your liberties. Today, you are TOLD, what you can and cannot do, where to do it, how to do it, what you can do it with, and who you can do it with..... or face the threat of violence.
They the government, only has power over you, because you allow it.
ALWAYS video record all government encounters....
Okay, so I get the gist of your post and agree with some of it. However, a certain amount of "being restrained" is necessary for a civil society. Actually, law and order is one of the best things about this nation. Nations without end up like Haiti.

Yep. There's always going to be some level of corruption. It's in our biology to want something for nothing. We are basically like animals in that regard... keep giving a dog meat and they will gorge themselves until they throw up. Humans are much more like animals and driven by animal instincts than we are willing to admit.
A revolution of one wouldn't work. You'd want to form a small militia and get yourselves well armed and only go after people as high up on the totem pole as possible. Going after the mindless "yes men" in the middle wouldn't accomplish much because they'd find other yes men to fill these positions. I would say society isn't really bad enough to warrant such a reaction, especially if you get off social media and stop watching the news and just live your lives, but then when you do this it allows your elected representatives to basically do whatever they want like send billions overseas on reckless spending legislation. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Do you want to be a revolutionary and what kind of system would you replace ours with? It's still a pretty good system of government despite it's flaws. Just like I say you will never save everyone, you will never come up with a perfect system of government that entirely eliminates corruption or fully bypasses our animal instincts. The most important thing is to have as many checks and balances as possible which itself helps keep human nature in check.
