I was browsing the United States Code (USC) and found this link. It was very interesting. It's called "The Organic Laws of The United States of America".
-CITE-Is the Declaration of Independence actually a law? That page was interesting. The Declaration of Independence has an official citation number, in case you want to formally cite it.

-EXPCITE-
THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE - 1776
As a practical matter, it's irrelevant. The Supreme Court would never say "This law is invalid, because people would revolt if we tried it."
The Articles of Confederation are also listed on that page. I thought they had no official legal standing anymore? The Articles of Confederation were replaced by the Constitution.
The Declaration of Independence says that people have the right to get rid of a form of government when it stops working. In practice, it's very hard to actually exercise that right. It's very hard to make progress when the vast majority have been brainwashed to be slaves.

It is hard to make progress to get rid of a corrupt and mostly useless government, because 50% of the population is employed by the government indirectly or directly. That number is estimated from the fact that each private sector employee pays 50% plus of their income in taxes.
If the means of production were evenly distributed, including food production, the people could easily rebel.
But if you live in a city, you are mostly dependent on the current system.
Who would have have to dispose?
Your employer, the corrupt and useless legal system, the useless police that avoid real criminals as they are too dangerous and instead have decided to shake down people that put their rubbish in the wrong bins etc....
Too many useless people picking your pocket.
Most people today can't even do anything about a bad employer.
If you object to something bad happening at work, you will be fired.
Then in your interview for a new job, they will ask why you left your job. If you say anything remotely bad, you won't get the job because 50 other people will be interviewing as well. They will lie say everything is wonderful and how their projects were always successful instead of steaming piles of stupidity because they were too weak to tell the truth!
Witness at one famous tech company, the customer service representatives were tired of working long hours and too many shifts. They all got together and confronted the managers as one unified voice. So the company fired almost all of them and started to offshore some of the work. Customers thought the offshore service was very bad.
So you can't even object to working long hours at work. You will get fired.
If people can't do anything against clown employers that abuse them, how can people possibly overthrow clown governments with armed thugs?
A clown thug can kill or beat up a civilian and the courts will do nothing.
Beat a civilian up as part of your policeman job and you will get full pay for months and months. Get convicted in court, ask for an appeal and the government money will keep on rolling in for your policeman's salary.
See UK newspapers for details.
As a policeman you can beat up a small 5 foot 2 woman. That government salary will just keep on rolling in.
