If you’re sitting for more than an hour straight that’s probably the problem.
OSHA rules demand that anyone sitting for more than 90 minutes straight get a 40 minute break.
Stop torturing yourself.
Drag yourself to the local store that sells chairs etc.
What is comfortable for one person is torture for another. Somethings have to be purchased hands on.
You wouldn’t need to police the planet, just control near space.
A half dozen orbiting gun platforms equipped with ground level sensors could destroy any ship leaving without permission.
It pays to read up on how the Viet Cong actually fought.

But even if you allowed the basis of the movie, there’s still a huge problem. The kind of rebellion shown only works if there’s another, bigger country supporting the rebels.
General Washington didn’t beat the British; the French Navy did. The French resistance didn’t kick out the Nazis; the Allied invasion at Normandy did. The Viet Cong had plenty of aid coming in.
According to the movie, Europe was completely controlled by the USSR and China had been nuked. Guns and bullets are expensive, and those kids could have only stored away enough for a few weeks of hunting, not a decades long war.

Isaac Asimov wrote books on a wide range of topics.

Ask a librarian.
To each their own.
Classic French thriller.
“Wages Of Fear.” Four men, two trucks, a desert, and five tons of unstable dynamite. They need to get the explosives to a uncontrolled oil well fire. They’ve got nothign to lose…
As long as sex work is illegal, it will be easy for people to find ways to abuse sex workers.
