Solutions to the tyranny of National government
Senator Hunt –
The following articles and commentary are offered for your consideration. There are currently two initiatives under discussion which aim to stop the flow of cash into Washington DC. One is an “incremental” step and the other a “quantum” leap.
The incremental step raises some difficult issues that must be addressed:
The quantum leap is probably beyond the comfort of most citizens, but still bears serious consideration:
But wait – are we not forbidden to secede in the constitution imposed by US military occupation during Reconstruction? Article I Section 4 of our constitution reads “we shall ever remain a member of the American Union”. Let’s pick a few nits here… if ‘the several States’ determine that national government operating in the District of Columbia is injurious to themselves, and they band together to divorce themselves only from the political influence of the District of Columbia (not a State), one could easily argue they remain members of an American Union.
Article I Section 35 of our constitution encourages this possibility: “A frequent recurrence to fundamental principles is absolutely necessary to preserve the blessings of liberty”. Fundamental principles may only be interpreted as a return to philosophy of the Declaration of Independence, wherein the Founders agreed “…whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it,…”
Washington DC has become destructive of our economy and liberty. It is our right and our duty to throw off such government and provide new guards for our future security.

Go away? Never.
morons.
Please please please go away. You losers take all of my tax money anyway. Just fade away. Please, Please.
This is the stupidest thing on the Internet. For one thing, the NATIONAL. government operates NATIONALLY, not just in D.C. — or haven't you taken a trip to the local post office?
Limited secession to prove a point? I think if Texas secedes, people will be moving as fast as possible to restore their freedom. Limited secession will only lead to permanent secession. When a large company goes bankrupt, the parts are sold off in small pieces. No matter what we are told, no company (or country) is too big to fail. Remember the U.S.S.R.?
