I spent three years living in a dictatorship when I was in the Navy. I DO understand it and that is why I understand that we do not live in one. I think it would be good for some of the (younger, usually) Americans to experience real hardship to put things into perspective for them.
This is not tyranny and it's not a dictatorship; we actually have a very nice system of checks and balances that prevents such a thing.
I have mixed feelings - embarrassment that you don't understand what tyranny really is, and happiness that you don't understand what tyranny really is.
