Every other industrialized democracy is able to do this. A government that doesn’t pass legislation isn’t the safety net you think, it is the precursor to authoritarian control and dictatorship. If the only thing keeping you safe is political gridlock then you live in a failed state. If you live in the failed state that you suggest then you should be arming yourself to the teeth right now and storming the government.

Can you give a specific example of this happening or rationale why it would happen?
If you live in [constitutional gridlock] then you should be arming yourself to the teeth right now and storming the government.
For what should be very obvious reasons this would be a disaster. This is the sort of mindset driving the events of Jan 6 and I hope those sorts of people with no respect for our republic fail.
