Maybe the local socialists haven't noticed because

I disagree. The bills allowing for federal funding to local governments were passed in bipartisan Congress and signed by U.S. presidents. They'll be repealed at the federal level, or we'll starve your local government offices into closing.
Obviously, local government socialists haven't noticed, but we're not buying. We're going to buy less each year, until we see freedom. This country needs new competition and new families in business, politics and academia. We're going to get that.
haven’t told them. That was my point. Our local TEA Partiers and 9-12ers are not only focused on Washington. We are also focused on our local and state legislators and executives. "10th Amendment Resolutions" are good talk, but we have a state Senator here who voted for one of those, then went begging Congress and the President to give us "our grant money" for the high-speed rail after our Governor told Obama and the Feds we weren't building their trains in our state.
Actually, I support Governor Scott in that decision, but I was disappointed that he didn't at least point out that nothing in Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution gives the Congress the authority to spend money on transportation within a single state (for example, from Tampa to Orlando).
But we have a state senator, Mike Fasano, who voted for a "10th amendment resolution" here in Florida and then joined with the Ruling Class RINO's in begging for federal money. They wanted the funds to be diverted to other transportation projects if it wasn't used for the high speed rail.
Clearly, many in the “ruling class” don’t fully understand the 10th amendment. It will take some education from the grass roots to fully educate both the electorate and the ruling class at the lower, more local levels. That is my point.
