As long as "the people" retain the ability and the courage to
overthrow the current government, by force. Yes. The people have absolute control.
As with so many other things in life, it is pain of death that serves as balance.
Americans have neither the courage, nor ability, to enforce absolute control. I am not entirely sure where it was lost, but I suspect in the early 30's at the height of the depression. Perhaps that is just where it started.
