And the HIGHEST crime rates and rising are — GUESS where — unbelievable — the countries that have TAKEN AWAY the guns from their citizens.
UK, Canada, Australia

Constitutionally ignorant citizens DESERVE to shake in their boots concerning the threat of Obamacare. More specifically, US citizens have evidently not been teaching the Constitution and its history to their children for many generations, particularly the constitutionally enumerated principle of state sovereignty. Consequently, the people do not understand that since the federal Constitution is silent about programs like Obamacare and the Stimulus Package, the 10th Amendment automatically reserves government power to regulate and lay taxes for such things to the states, not the Oval Office and Congress.

In fact, Chief Justice Marshall had established the following case precedent, now wrongly ignored, which appropriately limits the power of the feds to lay taxes.

“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” –Chief Justice Marshall, GIBBONS V. OGDEN (1824) http://supreme.justia.com/us/22/1/case.html

So not only is misguided Obama’s proposed healthcare constitutionally unauthorized, but based on Justice Marshall’s official words, the corrupt Congress never had the power to lay taxes to fund such programs in the first place.

What’s going on, IMO, is that state sovereignty-ignorant voters have been electing lawmakers to both the state legislatures and the federal senate who are as state sovereignty-impaired as the voters are. Consequently, these lawmakers have not been doing their jobs to protect state sovereignty by protecting citizens from illegal federal taxes and unconstitutional federal government interference in their lives as evidenced by the threat of illegal Obamacare.

Finally, the following link should help give people an idea how state sovereignty-ignorant voters have shot themselves in the foot with big, corrupt federal government as a consequence of the ill-conceived, anti-state sovereignty 16th and 17th Amendments.
