Contemplation on 4th of July "the States by a voluntary compact created a general government and delegated to it enumerated powers, reserving all else to themselves" (1)
"The founders of the American Republic never conferred or intended to confer sovereignty upon either State or Federal governments."(1)
"In vain have we asked by what clause of the Constitution the States surrendered their sovereignty" (1)
We ask the same question today, with the same result, silence. States were free independent sovereign Nations when they ratified the Constitution. Where did our Liberty and Freedom go? Our Liberty from the unauthorized use of power by our government has disappeared completely. Our personal freedom to act is so regulated and restricted that very little of personal volition may be safely undertaken without worrying about the heavy hand of government on our shoulder. We are NOT FREE!
Happy 4th of July Amerika. You may be celebrating a long weekend off work with family and friends but you certainly are not celebrating American Liberty and Freedom. Enjoy the fireworks. There will be more of another sort at a later date, yet to be determined.
TEXAS INDEPENDENCE NOW!
