States' Rights
Posted by PeterGemma on 06/17/09 6:19 PM
The federal government has lost its legitimacy: ranging from its inability and unwillingness to stem the tide of illegal immigration to failing to deal with the severe economic-financial crisis it helped create. Now, many states are reasserting sovereignty over their own affairs. The Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution provides this option as the Founding Fathers wisely intended. Is this a trend of things to come in the midst of the United States' government's insolvency, and the loss of affection the people have for central planners and bureaucrats in Washington, D.C.?
Here are some encouraging developments ...
