Well, you probably want to know what to expect here. As a follower of the first president, George Washington, I want to put forth articles that will inspire additional thought, so you can enjoy what you already know, your beliefs in the Constitution and the country. I try to write on subjects that have been missed in all the other information sources, of course mixing in some sarcasm and humour. Enjoy the freedom.

The connection - raising the debt limit and states rights

Lets back up for a moment. In an earlier article I talked about how "share the wealth" is actually "stealing your success".  Your success is your ability to take care of yourself, your spouse, your family.  You defend yourself and those you love by supporting police, firemen, teachers, the military, and other services.  The most efficient way is to combine your money with that of others, i.e., taxes.

Raising the debt limit opens the faucet for the government to borrow even more from other countries.  When the time comes to pay it back, the government will turn to us. They will scream "Crisis!" and justify that taxes must be raised.

You've been hearing that cry for about two and a half years. The progressives are doing everything they can to pull our money from us, from our families. Bailouts. Stimulus. Regulations. Programs to increase all forms of energy costs.  Then there's Obamacare - for the lives of businesses and people of America it's the equivalent of a flesh-eating plague.  The federal government has first rights to our paychecks - before states, before cities, before police, fire, before us.  It is odd that we've been paying more everywhere and getting fewer services.

Our Constitution lays out a balance of power between the three branches.  The states are the original entity that can contain the government should the balance of power fails.  Anyone who has read the Constitution and its history knows this.  More and more states are pushing back against Obamacare and its violation of the Constitution.  Unfortunately, more and more states are running out of money.

All the government mechanisms for pulling dollars are sucking the life out of the states.  How will there be the balance of "States Rights" when the states have to beg?
