And if they have time, then save their kin.<br /><br />Who's powerful enough to "save the nation"? Do those trying to "save" it really even know what they're doing?<br /><br />Raising a few kids well is a big accomplishment in itself.Weavernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566715115931065803.post-66714969554669761052017-04-02T17:41:31.166-04:002017-04-02T17:41:31.166-04:00As I understand it, a return to the Constitution w...As I understand it, a return to the Constitution would be an enormous change. So, I doubt it will happen.<br /><br />Voters wouldn't like it. To give an example, the Interstate Highway system is justified as "Defence" spending, as I recall. That is spurious. And there's no mention of healthcare in the Constitution, no mention of social security. And Congress would need to justify America's involvement all over the globe. Only Congress may declare war.<br /><br />The list would be very long on the things that are not Constitutional. Marriage is obviously between a man and his wife. Abortion seems to me a state issue; maybe someone else could argue differently.<br /><br />If we truly returned to the Constitution, voters would likely adopt a new Constitution, especially as the demographics change.<br /><br />What it boils down to is the military is loyal to the politicians, not to the Constitution. So, they and the Court interpret things as they please. And our institutions, eg. law schools, falsely claim the Constitution says all we interpret it to mean today.<br /><br />So, I guess this is all an example of how written laws aren't really the source of power. The average voter can't understand written law, so the laws hold little real power. We interpret the truth through our authorities, who then tell us what we should believe.Weavernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566715115931065803.post-3006365687825587262017-04-02T11:59:29.123-04:002017-04-02T11:59:29.123-04:00Hope is we have, but maybe enough!Hope is we have, but maybe enough!Brock Townsendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11404173139501539265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566715115931065803.post-65613824204515024072017-04-02T11:57:56.079-04:002017-04-02T11:57:56.079-04:00That is clear.
