That's where we have to be ready to put our money where our mouth is. It is hard to take anyone seriously when they say "we want a return to the Constitutional principles" on the one hand, then turn around and complain that the gov't is going to stop handing out money that is in violation of the 10th Amendment.

For the most part, States are fair-weather friends with the Constitution. As long as the Constitution can be used to enforce our freedoms and states' rights, then it's great. But as soon as the Constitution is used to cut off funds, then all bets are off.

You are so right. and people dont realize it. They have slowly accepted the Social handouts & gotten used to them & only want big Bro to stay out of what they want him out of.
Especially medecine. O, BTW, gotta go to the hospital to visit sick folks.

I support every one of these listed above & some more too.
Been saying it for a long time. One thing no one is stating if they have even thought about it is when the states pass these laws, "Bo-namma & company" will start withholding Federal funds. My guess is first will be highway. That will cause a fuss. Next education. Not only mad teachers but problems to work out. People will need to be ready to do on less. A LOT less.
I am not the political sharp thinker that many on this board are. That is the reason I stay out of the political forums here. Are you willing to give up medicare when they hold that. (social medicine too.)
What about when the More Govt. know it alls decide to stop "SOCIAL" Security to the "States in Rebellion".
They cant do that.
Sure they can. An executive order to that effect would be obeyed immediately by other big govt lazy leeches. Just dont mail the checks to any resident of a state that is in rebellion & let the people jump on the Governor & legislatures

I have been ready for a LOOOONG time. A lot are not.
Many in our borders want to do what they want to do & NoBamma & company stay away but still send the money w/ no strings attatched. No Socialism except the part we already have & that I want
My 02cents & some think it worth half that.
