Is anyone on top of the
opt-out story? I just heard a short something on the way into work. Under the proposed legislation the States can opt out but they
still have to pay?!?!?!?!
That's not State's rights. That's bullying States into what they and their people don't want. We should encourage States to NOT buy into this farce and reject the whole notion. We should encourage States to stand up to the Federal Government and say that if this steaming wheelbarrow is being shoved down the American people's throat, State by State it will be shoved up the Government's lower orifice.
Now is not the time to be silent. Silence is consent. We should be resilient and unwavering. The signers of the Declaration of Independence pledged to themselves their Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor. If they made that kind of pledge to themselves for not just the people in the room that day, but for the rest of their fellow Colonists as well as those of us that come after them, we would disgrace and be unworthy of the work that our Founding Fathers did in 1776 if we do not speak out.
