Resentment toward government
Do you feel it is normal for a citizenry to develop feelings of resentment toward government when they struggle or should citizens become more patriotic?
I believe if the government is causing hardship on the people it is the duty of the people to set it right and make the government change so the people are once again happy. Unhappy people can cause a government to collapse quickly. Happy people cause more patriotic responses and the government is on firmer ground.
