Texas Declares State Sovereignty

Texas recently declared state sovereignty under the 10th amendment of the constitution. The 10th Amendment states:

“The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”

Simple and straight forward. What is not outlined for the federal government in the constitution is reserved for the states or the people. Of course since Teddy Roosevelt the tyrannical politicians have been taking power from the states and people. Recently the states and federal government had reached an equilibrium point of about 20% of the GDP controlled by the federal government and 20% by state and local government. Imbalanced in favor of the federal government but the system we have been operating under for a few decades.

Now the federal government is on a feeding frenzy. The 20% is now 25% and growing. Governor Rick Perry and most Texans realize the intrusion and growth of the fascist in Washington and thank god are not going to sit back and watch our country be controlled by insane thugs in Washington.
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize the average working person with a 25% increase in their paycheck would stimulate the economy tremendously. Getting rid of 70,000 pages of IRS mumbo jumbo that only those with access to top quality accountants benefit from. Bureaucrats from every agency telling government and people what to do about everything suddenly gone. The only down side to Texas independence would be the loss of the military. And the incentives for Texas to become independent will only grow as the power of the federal government increases.

Other states are also well aware of the lunacy going on in Washington. Alaska would love to be free of the Washington burden. Missouri is going the opposite direction of Washington. People want to be free. With Texas leading the way many states will follow their lead. In ten years we could have a totally different North America.

Look at the 2008 election map by county. Most of America is conservative with the exception of the big cities that are dominating national politics. If Texas and the Midwest, Southeast and Far West wanted to for an alliance you bet it would not only be effective but isolate Washington in a New York minute. The breakup could be very swift like the break up of the former USSR. And there would be nothing Washington could do about it.

Why? Look at the budget the fascist have in place. Where are they going to borrow money to fight a war? Where is the industrial might? Certainly not in Detroit anymore. Who would the world want to do business with? A bunch of political loons in Washington or strait shooting politicians from Texas? It’s a no brainer.

You want to see how devoid and behind the times the north is? Drive from Detroit to Tampa on I-75. I did that with my son recently and he was astonished at how backward and depressing the north is. Sort of like going from the Hilton to the slum motel where the hookers work. Believe me it made an impression on him about the north and it wasn’t a good one. Michigan needs a revolution not a bail out.

Like Glen Beck is fond of saying “we surround them.” Look at the map. We surround them. If Texas decided to call Washington bluff every decent hard working person with capital would flee the insanity of the fascist states. We can do it! Change!
