Personally, I think by controlling energy they control the food supply. So, only those who are independently able to feed themselves would be able to ban together for such a revolt. With transportation under their control (via energy control), such a revolution wouldn't be practical. The most such an effort could do is random acts, such as the US fighting against at present.
Armed rev isn't the answer. We need to educate those Americans who still love Americans. And we need to embolden them and ourselves to get aggressively in the faces of the Leftists (and those who tangentially support them from their special-interest groups) and back them off, shut them up, and close them down. By shut them up, I mean make them fear that no matter where they are, they will be outnumbered and if they start spewing their Leftists, destroy-America crap, they know they will be counter-attacked from all sides.

By taking away the option of using arms, then that goal is forever denied you.
Do you thinks that the US can succeed in foreign policy without such an option?
Why then should our options be so limited?
What else is the 2nd amendment for?
