They have still gutted the 10th amendment random thoughts Send a noteboard - 13/05/2015 01:47:53 PM

The whole idea was local control over having some distant authority make your laws but have moved away that because we did not always like the laws other places made. We need to go back to have senators appointed by the state and get away from the lie the interstate commerce clause give the fed the right to regulate any damn thing they want to.
