Porfirio Diaz was president of Mexico from 1884 to 1911, This was a time of great economic growth for Mexico, as the regime opened its doors to foreign investment, particularly in the mining sector. However, Diaz's policies promoted a strong centralized government, which would lead to an unequal focus on certain regions and economic activities of the country, leaving others exposed to impoverishment. The expropriation of peasants lands in favor of big enterprises enraged rural populations. Inequality among the regions and societies of urbanized areas was becoming more evident. This led to a series of manifestations against the government that would eventually lead to the end of the regime.

The colonists of America had very few opportunities to influence the government of England as they did not have any representation in the British Parliament (which was one of the factors that motivated the Revolutionary War). Because of this, they usually influenced the government through economic measures (ex. by disturbing trade) or through illegal means (ex. rebellions). On the other hand, there are several ways in which people today can influence governments. For example, by writing letters to their representatives, voting in local and federal elections, running for office and lobbying for a cause.
Basically means that power that isn't given to the government is given to the people. Not sure what you're asking by a skit.
