I wouldn't get too disheartened. Political responses to bullshit are generational. Ie, the people who notice the bad early don't number high enough to force the issue. But if they are correct more people will inevitably join against whatever is causing problems and eventually it will meet a tipping point. After that it could land anywhere from peaceful settlements to chaos. Hell, even in the declaration of independence it mentions it "and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security." It's gotta get really bad for a lot of people, and they have to then collectively realize how bad it is and how far it goes. Then things move faster than anyone could predict.
