I don't think that's the right question at all.
I don't want to make changes to "magically save America and stop its marching decline" (whichever decline you happen to be peddling).
I want to make changes to get fewer people in America shot in the short-to-mid-term.
Do you still believe that getting rid of the 2nd Amendment would hasten an American collapse? Because I haven't seen it effectively stop ANY so-called government overreach, and don't believe it will prevent any in the future either.
In the long-term, it also introduces its own existential risk: why should I assume "the citizens people with the most guns who do the best in a revolution" would institute a government better for me than the current American one?
