Answer: Petitioning the government is useless because it does not always result in  action.

Explanation:

Thoreau questioned the effectiveness of change inside the government, arguing that voting and petitioning was often useless.

He stated that protest was better than advocating for reform from within government because those in government couldn´t see the wrongs.
