Have you seen the protests in greece because there was a train crash and no one in the government is willing to take responsibility? That's what I associate with people hating a government's actions. I've not seen any news of US society breaking their complacency yet. A mass layoff in government institutions as happened in the US has caused plenty general strikes in Europe in the past. Please, you may even protest in the comfort of your cars and clog up a city to make it more American, just organise already :'(
