Two states initially refused to agree, and of the remainder five had approved the document only after the Constitution’s supporters and moderate opponents had cut a political deal calling for a Bill of Rights. As soon as the new Congress met, two of the most important states, Virginia and New York, petitioned for a new convention to re-write the Constitution. Only after Congress had approved the Bill of Rights did Virginia and New York abandon their petitions and only then did the last two hold-outs, North Carolina and Rhode Island, join the union. The fourteenth state, Vermont, came in at the beginning of 1791.<br /><br />The 10th Amendment, also known as the “states rights” amendment says very simply, “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” Very simple words…and these simple words mean just this: If it’s not in the enumerated powers of the Constitution, the US government is not empowered to legislate it.<br /><br />There is nothing in the US Constitution that authorizes the New Deal, the Great Society, or nationalized health care or any other fiscal or civil dishonesty that is being perpetrated upon the people.<br /><br />All of the text above from </span><a href="http://www.tenthamendmentcenter.com/"><span style="font-size:130%;">tenthamendmentcnter.com </span></a><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">I can only take credit for the title.</span>The Freedom Writerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02308306424622477519noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4648617327355149955.post-25039842804005439692011-04-26T23:14:00.003-04:002011-04-26T23:21:35.670-04:00The Blessed Institution: Liberty<span style="font-size:130%;">Since the beginning of the last century, many seeds of destruction have been planted that are now maturing into a systematic assault on our freedoms. With a horrendous financial and currency crisis both upon us and looming into the future as far as the eye can see, it has become quite apparent that the national debt is unsustainable, liberty is threatened, and the people's anger and fears are growing. Most importantly, it is now clear that government promises and panaceas are worthless. Government has once again failed, and the demand for change is growing louder by the day. Just witness the dramatic back-and-forth swings of the parties in power.<br /><br />Ron Paul </span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">Introduction to <strong><em>Liberty Defined </em></strong></span><a href="http://mises.org/daily/5219/The-Blessed-Institution-Liberty"><span style="font-size:130%;">Here<br /><br /></span></a>The Freedom Writerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02308306424622477519noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4648617327355149955.post-65423280268983280412011-04-14T08:38:00.003-04:002011-04-14T17:54:02.117-04:00Thanks and Giving<span style="font-size:130%;">It seems a trifle peculiar to send someone on a walking tour of a medical facility. But in the case of Pennsylvania Hospital, the oldest such institution in the land, history, architecture, and landscaping combine in making yet another of Benjamin Franklin's legacies a singular destination. The indefatigable Franklin raised money to help found the hospital in 1751, in conjunction with Dr. Thomas Bond. When the United States declared independence from Great Britain, the hospital was already 25 years old. Franklin also served on the hospital's original Board of Managers, as well as being its first secretary and second president. </span><span style="font-size:130%;"></span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br />More here <a href="http://www.ushistory.org/franklin/philadelphia/hospital.htm">http://www.ushistory.org/franklin/philadelphia/hospital.htm</a></span> <span style="font-size:130%;"></span><span style="font-size:130%;">Thanks go out to the happy ebay auction winner of the <em><strong>Benjamin Franklin</strong></em> tshirt.

Americans who wait until 2013 to prepare, will most likely see the majority of their purchasing power wiped out. It is essential that all Americans begin preparing for hyperinflation immediately.</span> <span style="font-size:130%;"></span><span style="font-size:130%;">To read all 12 warning signs go to:</span> <a href="http://inflation.us/hyperinflationwarningsigns.html"><span style="font-size:130%;">http://inflation.us/hyperinflationwarningsigns.html</span></a> <span style="font-size:130%;"></span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br />8) Record U.S. Budget Deficit in February of $222.5 Billion. The U.S. government just reported a record budget deficit for the month of February of $222.5 billion. February's budget deficit was more than the entire fiscal year of 2007. In fact, February's deficit on an annualized basis was $2.67 trillion. NIA believes this is just a preview of future annual budget deficits, and we will see annual budget deficits surpass $2.67 trillion within the next several years.</span> <span style="font-size:130%;"></span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br />10) Obama Lies About Foreign Policy. President Obama campaigned as an anti-war President who would get our troops out of Iraq. NIA believes that many Libertarian voters actually voted for Obama in 2008 over John McCain because they felt Obama was more likely to end our wars that are adding greatly to our budget deficits and making the U.S. a lot less safe as a result. Obama may have reduced troop levels in Iraq, but he increased troops levels in Afghanistan, and is now sending troops into Libya for no reason. The U.S. is now beginning to occupy Libya, when Libya didn't do anything to the U.S. and they are no threat to the U.S. Obama has increased our overall overseas troop levels since becoming President and the U.S. is now spending $1 trillion annually on military expenses, which includes the costs to maintain over 700 military bases in 135 countries around the world. There is no way that we can continue on with our overseas military presence without seeing hyperinflation.</span>The Freedom Writerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02308306424622477519noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4648617327355149955.post-67150502723057927642011-03-25T08:15:00.002-04:002011-03-25T08:19:36.994-04:00Make Love not "kinetic military action"<span style="font-size:130%;">White House: Libya fight is not war, it's 'kinetic military action'Read more at the Washington<br /><br />Examiner: </span><a style="COLOR: #003399" href="http://washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/beltway-confidential/2011/03/white-house-libya-fight-not-war-its-kinetic-military-action##ixzz1Hc4NBOme"><span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;">http://washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/beltway-confidential/2011/03/white-house-libya-fight-not-war-its-kinetic-military-action##ixzz1Hc4NBOme</span></a>The Freedom Writerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02308306424622477519noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4648617327355149955.post-87118649563362964302011-03-25T08:10:00.001-04:002011-03-25T09:30:17.259-04:00Lipstick On A Pig<span style="font-size:130%;">and this from March of 2009</span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">The Washington Post </span><a href="http://voices.washingtonpost.com/44/2009/03/23/the_end_of_the_global_war_on_t.html?hpid=news-col-blog"><span style="font-size:130%;">reports</span></a><span style="font-size:130%;"> that the Obama administration has renamed the Global War on Terror.

The town unanimously passed an ordinance giving its citizens the right “to produce, process, sell, purchase, and consume local foods of their choosing.” This includes raw milk, locally slaughtered meats, and just about anything else you can imagine. It’s also a decided bucking of state and federal laws.</span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">This isn’t just a declaration of preference. The proposed warrant added, “It shall be unlawful for any law or regulation adopted by the state or federal government to interfere with the rights recognized by this Ordinance.” In other words, no state licensing requirements prohibiting certain farms from selling dairy products or producing their own chickens for sale to other citizens in the town.</span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"><br />What about potential legal liability and state or federal inspections? It’s all up to the seller and buyer to negotiate. “Patrons purchasing food for home consumption may enter into private agreements with those producers or processors of local foods to waive any liability for the consumption of that food. Producers or processors of local foods shall be exempt from licensure and inspection requirements for that food as long as those agreements are in effect.” Imagine that–buyer and seller can agree to cut out the lawyers.

Williams<span style="font-size:130%;">Walter E. Williams : a short must read at <em><a href="http://www.lewrockwell.com/williams-w/w-williams71.1.html">LewRockwell.com</a></em></span><br /><em><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></em><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">It is truly disgusting for me to hear politicians, national and international talking heads and pseudo-academics praising the Middle East stirrings as democracy movements. We also hear democracy as the description of our own political system. Like the founders of our nation, I find democracy and majority rule a contemptible form of government. </span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">John Adams said, "Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There was never a democracy yet that did not commit suicide." Alexander Hamilton said, "We are now forming a Republican form of government. Real Liberty is not found in the extremes of democracy, but in moderate governments. If we incline too much to democracy, we shall soon shoot into a monarchy, or some other form of dictatorship."</span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">To highlight the offensiveness to liberty that democracy and majority rule is, just ask yourself how many decisions in your life would you like to be made democratically. How about what car you drive, where you live, whom you marry, whether you have turkey or ham for Thanksgiving dinner? If those decisions were made through a democratic process, the average person would see it as tyranny and not personal liberty. Is it no less tyranny for the democratic process to determine whether you purchase health insurance or set aside money for retirement?
