Societal change just doesnt happen without a very large delta inducing that change. For example, we can view the changes from 9/11: creation of TSA, creation of Department of Fatherland.... Homeland security, breakdown of freedoms of travel and search.
Change can also go the other way. We only have a large chunk of the Middle East to look at, starting with Tunisia.
What I have studied a portion of is how the United states got where it is today. And time and time again, corrupt laws are passed for the reason of knee jerk or 'security'. Those politicians also promise never to use those laws against us, which in 5 or so years undoubtedly are.
Perhaps the base Constitution is correct, although I think clarifications are in order. Perhaps not, considering the claim I have read that it was written solely for white landowners.
I don't have the answers, but I can spot corruption when I see it. And when it's this endemic, revolution is the only way to fix it. Gods hope it's a peaceful one.
