If it is your contention that it is the money is the control factor then it would mean that they would have to be able to survive without the need of any federal monies.

If they can do this today then they will be able to thwart any federal influence that those monies would bring just as those companies that were bailed out with the feds monies did not have to accept it and the control that the feds got over thier business at the same time.

It is a simple concept, but not always simple in its application today.

In view of that Karen, then you would have that things are not the way the founding fathers intended them to be, because of the civil war, as that Eddies vews of things are NOW more in line with the way things are currently.
So his statement of naivity is now currently approiate to your view of how things should work. I can not blame him for those REALITY views but will discuss any time the fathers intentions and how it is possible to return to them GIVEN todays complex factors that were not invisioned by the founding fathers.

That's right. That's what we have running the country. The insane that will mortgage us right out to another country.

I guess the media hasn't heard of this either. I can't recall FOX, CNN, or MSNBC giving this much coverage.

It also mentions that China can come in and take any property, mine, yours, cites, states and the US has agreed to relocate those citizens who may be affected anywhere they want whether you like it or not. Free country? Where?

I'd like to see them try. Then maybe, and I mean maybe, the american people will stand up and unite for a cause that is meaningful and important to them and their grandchildren.

Karen, if you look back into history, this federal rights vs states rights was what the civil war was about. And since the south lost that war it has been federal rights as supreme ever since.

The constitution was made so as to consider states rights as supreme and that has not been the case since the civil war in all reality. We can not change that history but only work to limit the influence of the feds upon the states.

It is sad, but this is the way that it is now.

It's amazing to me that that this isn't a bigger issue to people.
Whether you're a democrat, republican, latino, asian, or alien this is an issue that we should all be worried about.

Looks like it's time to begin stockpiling on oil, gold, and the all mighty euro.

Wow, I'm surprised I haven't heard of this. Makes sense though.
So, if they wanted to, they could come knocking anytime and take a good portion of us over?

Insane.....

And this is the way it should be. That's why I am always pushing so hard on states rights issues. I'm really sick to death of having the Fed come in and coerce the states into passing BS laws by threatening to cut funding for this and funding for that if they do not comply. I say the states should tell the Fed fine, shove it up you *** and we just won't send you any more money from this state.

This is very naive statement Karen. It assume that all states, if not created equal, are equal. The sad fact is that they are not.
The federal goverment would not be able to survive without California, Texas, Florida, and some other revenue producing states. (Bad economy or not) but the rest of them are too small to survive without some handout from the Fed. They cannot afford the luxory of losing it.

Karen, read my statement carefully. I didn't talk about ideologies. I talked about goverment and what I described as the acusation of socielist infestation. Last time I checked, the goverment was controlled by either the republicans or the democrats which suposdly represent two diferent ideologies. Both sides spend our money and the question is who spend on what. Althogh an argument can be made that any goverment(Regardless of party afiliation) would find reason to spend you hard earning dollars and be ready to be surpised, including Ron Paul.

As far as the constitution goes, most people do not understand that it was only the Federal Government that was prohibited from any religious formation.

The States and Local levels were not prohibited from such as far as the beginning constitution is concerned. And several communities did have their own requirements in the beginning. I know that it is not being applied this way currently, but as far as constiutuional law is concerned from the beginning it was only the Federal government that this was applied to as they were to be concerned with the outside forces and the internal forces were left to the States and Local governments.

This was so that each community and State could have their own beliefs wanted by their peoples without it affecting the entire United States.
