Want to fix the problems with the Federal Government passing un-funded requirements on the states? Repeal the 17th amendment to the constitution. Our founding fathers knew that the Federal Government would grow to become the bloated festering boil on the ass of society that it has become. That’s why they instituted the checks and balances that they did. Originally, the states had their representation in the congress – The Senate, and the people had their representation – The House of Representatives.
With the problems introduced because of the Civil war, the 17th amendment was enacted. Instead of letting the states work through their problems, and penalizing the states with contentions – they could have let those states with problems go without representation. They would have certainly fixed their own mess sooner or later, and the nation would have been better off for it. Taking the easy way out, is always detrimental in the long run.
We, as a nation, have got to go back to the basics, and get representation for the states back into the congress. State’s rights are a dying breed, unfortunately.
Our founding fathers wanted this to be a nation of individual states, not a one state nation. Diversity seems to be one of the buzz words now-a-days. Well, that is what our founding fathers intended as well, with the states. Our federal government, with its overbearing regulation, is taking the diversity away from the states. When it comes to the United States of America, I’m pro-choice.
Why do people make excuses for stupid movies?
No, seriously. When I see a blatently idiotic and bad movie, then flat out declare it with an itemized list which indisputably proves, point by point, why the film is an abomination, inveritably somebody I like and admire chastizes me for taking it to seriously.
After seeing the junkyard vomit that is Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen, I’m striking back. That’s the line in the sand. For those that claim that a desire for at least mediocre filmmaking is “taking entertainment too seriously”, my only reply can be “WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU!?!”
