So the basic AC answer is: we're [censored] if someone does it, and nothing is stoping that person. Correct?

Yes, but the operative word is "if." You're assuming a very, very big if. I mean, what happens if the president, congress and supreme court get together one day and decide to order the US military to start bombing all the US citizens? What's stopping them?

EDIT: I'll throw in a poker example. What happens if you start running bad for the next three years? No strategy can guarantee a win. What's stopping you from going broke?
