[Perseverando]

There is a line from a 1930 or 40's gangster movie. I believe it was somewhat popular in the culture during that era as well. It is said sarcastically:

"Don't make a federal case out of it!"

Unfortunately, progressives think everything should be a federal crime.

We’re not supposed to have a national government and that’s what statists and many big businesses want. Big business is a major enemy to liberty in that they want numerous agencies to 1. keep out competitors and 2. allow them to capture the regulatory regime.

Our system is federalism. We have a federal government. Mexico, Italy and most other third world countries have national governments. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unitary_state

America and American government are absolutely unique in world history. We are the exception. The rule is socialism, tribalism and national central control.

American exceptionalism is real.

That was one of my mother’s favorite sayings. It meant “Dont make a mountain out if a molehill.”
