State Sovereignty - the 16th Amendment

State Sovereignty - the 16th Amendment
He, who has the money, has the power

Remember, there is nothing that the government can give you that they haven’t already taken from you.
As long as states continue to bow before the altar of “Federal Funding,” they will never be sovereign. Just take a look at the “Stimulus Package” if you want proof. Show me a single state that isn’t groveling before the federal government for a portion of those dollars that are coming from our back pockets.
In a recent article on the GOPUSA website entitled, “GOP Governors Now Faced with Hot Potato,” the author, Bobby Ebarle, asks the following questions:
“So what happens next? What happens if you are a GOP governor? You stand to receive billions from the bill, yet you philosophically oppose the entire plan. If you don't believe in big government solutions, do you still accept big government funds? That is the question.”
The answer to all of those questions is that they have caved in to the federal government and justifiably so. They are vying for a portion of the money that the federal government has taken or borrowed.
It’s absolutely amazing how many people think this money is just coming out of thin air. (Well, there is an argument that this really is the case, but we’ll have to save that for another discussion.) It’s coming on the backs of our children and our children’s children; a debt that they can never repay. One of the major discussions that is absent from the bill is how this debt will be repaid. It’s unconscionable that a communist country (a sworn enemy to freedom and liberty) owns a major portion of our debt, and we are about to increase that by over a TRILLION DOLLARS. Do you hear me??????????

This is why I don't trust (most) Republicans any more than I trust Democrats.
