Looking back at history, the problem of an out of control Government started with Woodrow Wilson and the passing of the 16th Amendment. The taking of citizens’ income was the beginning and has been accelerating to this point.

The only way to fix this is to:

1. Cut the size of the Federal work force 25-40%. Keep cutting until the 16th Amendment can be repealed.
2. Eliminate the public service unions
3. Institute term limits for Congress
4. Phase out Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.

Don’t forget 1913, when the Fed was created. It may have been more destructive, since the banking cartel doesn’t need to bother writing bills and voting on them.

5. Repeal the 17th amendment - put the Senate back in the hands of the states instead of allowing it to be a rogue spending “house of lords”
