American Revolution

So really, what are the chances of an uprising in modern day America?  Not only do you have police everywhere, along with National Guard/Reserves and regular military bases throughout the country, but anyone that dares to fight  is an automatic criminal/militia/fanatic/terrorist.  Of course that means you're judged by the very rules you're trying to overthrow... but what chance is there that someone could overthrow the country's entire rule system and start from scatch, or even have the support of the majority of the people who watch TV and see everything thtrough a filtered media that puts negative spin in order to dissuade the efforts of a revolution?  The problem is the majority of the population is content and complacent.  Revolutions occur when the majority is poor, pissed off, and tired of the current system.  It would require people to have no access to their books, television, movies, computers, video games, or anything else to distract them.  It would require wealth to diminish to nothing, houses to lose their value, and utilities and public programs to become completely ineffective.  I don't see any of this happening unless the US is assraped by the Middle East or communist Asia.   

"In principle, it could be debated that the poor person owes society much more than the rich person, since he probably makes more use of the services that society provides him."

When a rich guy drives through town in his mercedes, walks safely through the streets, sits down at a nice resturant and is hand served food by expert cooks, then drives home to his huge central heated electricity consuming pointlessly large house built using difficult to extract materials he is wasting a shit load of resources provided by that society that could've be used to do a lot of good in that society. Why does he deserve this just for getting dividends from owning property? Surely an economic system that put his monetary talents to good use and forced him to work hard all day, possibly to maintain his wealth, would be better?

If he were plonked naked in the middle of alaska, he wouldn't be rich, therefore he isn't rich entirely through personal merit and owes society and more so than a poor man who only uses a fraction of the economy compared to the rich man.

I'm sick and tired of lazy ass profiteers idling around just because they have enough wealth to not to have to work, they leach more off the economy than lazy bums who don't work! You don't see actors and musicians with lots of money stop working. They're rich anyway so what's the problem?

"A corporation pays for thier electricity to the power company not the govenment, and they do pay.  they pay less per kilowatt hour true, however if you have a company that makes buttons, and  somebody was willing to buy 50% of the buttons you made every year, would you give them a discount."

So they pay the power company for their power, but who do they pay for the priviledge of being able to use such a large portion of the country's resources? When you own property you pay tax, people who rent a flat and work in a company they don't own already pay extra so that the landlord can meet tax demands and gain less in wages so that the company's owners can pay their tax, so why should they pay more tax?

Has any country ever gained success through economic strength
