States Rights: The 10th Amendment may be the only way to restore the Republic!

THE REAL MEANING OF MIND CONTROL

It's estimated that, in 1776, there were 2.5 million people living in the 13 American colonies.

That's 13 colonial governments for 2.5 million people.

Now, we have one city government serving 8.4 million people in New York City.

We have one city government serving 3.8 million people in Los Angeles.

Yes, these cities have smaller districts or boroughs with their own governments, but you get the idea. Greater and greater numbers of people with less and less real contact with their government.

We have one federal government that serves 300 million people.

I doubt that Jefferson or Madison truly envisioned the extent of the population explosion. Their plan for central government supposed that elected representatives would be closer to the people.

So how can this happen now?

Answer: Local and state governments should exercise much greater power than the federal government. And by power, I don't mean invasive force; I mean decision-making.

You can't hope for a Republic when 300 million people fall under the sway of a single central government. It's sheer madness.

One more reason for 10th Amendment nullification. Which is to say, state governments asserting, in no uncertain terms, that they refuse to honor federal laws which exceed the enumerated federal powers explicitly granted in the Constitution.
