GfS said in part: "...both sides, in government ruled against the WILL of the PEOPLE!"

1)That would have to be documented VERY carefully instead of just rolled out as a slogan by someone who treats ANY government as a nuisance.

2) This "will of the people" phrase is a bit overused and misunderstood as a guide to how elected officials should make decisions.
Of course our elected representatives should take into account, as best they can, the opinions of those who elected them, but not just blindly. They were also elected because they were trusted to study situations, in this full-time job, and understand better than the average voter what is needed and what is best for not only THEIR constituents, but for the country as a whole.
   There are areas in which they SHOULD vote mostly as the "will of the people" dictates, but there are also areas where "the people" have little idea what the situation is and what consequences might be.
   It is possible for the hoi polloi to have a collective opinion that is uninformed, prejudiced or just plain dangerous & wrong. Should a member of Congress vote to bomb Iran, just because he get a lot of letters asking him to?
If the elected official(s) turn out to be dumb, unresponsive...and in the pay of some lobby, we have recourse at the next election.

Sadly, too many government officials, both elected and appointed, forget...or ignore... a sane balance between paying attention to the populace and using their own best judgment.....but I'll tell you, *I* would rather struggle to keep THIS system patched and operating than to adopt some Libertarian or anarchist system that operates on some idea of 'controlled mob rule'. I do not want this country to even come close to having hot-headed "militias" controlling things.

We DO have rules, procedures and institutions set up to deal with abuses...even abuses BY such things like the SEIU, **if** that is shown to be an abuse.

Government will ALWAYS be frustrating and need tweaking & improvement, but 'society' in this era would fall apart without it.
