[Discworld] Why are citizens of Ankh-Morpork constantly plotting to overthrow the Patrician?

He may rule with a bit of a firm hand but he's not a malevolent dictator like those before him. He allows freedom of the press, enacts policies based on public opinion, and rarely, if ever, stomps out any resistance to his rule.

>He'd taken all the gangs and squabbling groups and made them see that a small slice of the cake on a regular basis was better by far than a bigger slice with a dagger in it. He'd made them see that it was better to take a small slice but enlarge the cake.

*Feet of Clay*

Unfortunately, some people still want the whole pie rather than seeing that a regular, increasingly large, slice is much less effort. While he lives a relatively austere life, Vetinari *could* live to excess like previous Patricians and that is what the people who wish to overthrow him would do for themselves.

Plus, a lot of those same plotters are classist and racist. They don't want dwarfs, trolls, undead, etc., "They're not our sort of people" kind of thing. Just look at that inbred streak of piss Ronnie Rust.
