governments can change their 'form'; Individuals can change dispositions

Governments can change their form of governing, but they cannot change the fact that they are a government that must govern. Individuals can change their disposition and hence view themselves, other individuals around them; and their government in a different light. While individuals at the Bottom of government can undergo many 'changes', government, at the Top, can only undergo a change in the 'form' by which it governs. For example; an autocracy can change into a democracy or a democracy can change into an Autocracy. Of course, these are two 'extremes' of government, and as we know, there are many gradations in between the two. But, the change at the Top will always effect the manner of 'governing' the individuals at the Bottom. While individuals can undergo many changes in 'disposition' and not have any effect on the form of government. Change can occur anytime and in many different ways. However, if an individual or individuals decide to change an egregious form of governing, in a democracy, they will seek different ways to bring about changes in their government. In an Autocracy, this move is not tolerated, while in a democracy, the People are free to try to bring about changes. Nevertheless, they are required to follow certain rules and regulations. They can "vote out the rascals"; they can 'run' for office; they can 'support' a different candidate; and if the 'change' is imperative, necessary, and immediately necessary, they can "assemble and petition the government for redress of grievances". This is a Constitutional right in a 'real' democracy; the right of 'assembly'. But, its obvious that a 'Constitutional assembly' can easily transform into 'chaos', and revolution. Usually, there is no 'consensus', between the Top and the Bottom, about the sought after change and hence its deterioration into revolution. Governments must 'listen' to the People; a sought after change is usually related to the Freedom and Equality of the individuals. These changes do not 'harm' government; they only increase the proper democratic distribution of its power.
