Obama Ready To “Shutdown” 16 U.S. States

That’s exactly right. There is more than enough tax revenue to pay the interest on the debt and for the military. Some of the other programs would have to take a cut or delayed payments.

The debt HAS to be paid first.

[Jukeman]

Good. That means we don’t have secede. He will be doing it for us and then we won’t have to put up with his crap any longer.

[Leaning Right]

How Uncle Sam shuts down a state is not clear here and I don’t have time to study it out.

As best as I can figure out, the article is claiming that the Fed's have a plan to stop sending welfare checks to people in 16 states.

That would cause massive civil unrest. The unrest would shut down those 16 states. Then Obama would declare martial law.

Bottom line: The article is an odd flight of fancy. You were right not taking the time to study it out.

IMPEACHMENT!

or perhaps secession???

[WayneS]

Nice thought, but the power of impeachment (at least of the president and vice president) is "delegated to the United States [congress] by the Constitution", and is therefore not "reserved to the States respectively, or to the people".

[FreedomNotSafety]

It is worth a pile of Shiite.

87% of the government is functioning.

There is more than enough tax receipts to cover interest payments, and the Social Fraud programs.

If Obama decides to wreck the credit of the US Treasury so be it. The only thing it means is that the US will not be able to borrow as much or as easily as it does now. What is the downside to that?

AuschwitzCare, IMO. Who thinks for one rational second that Dingy Harry, Eyeballs Pelosi, Babs Boxer, DiFi, et al. give a damn about anyone’s healthcare? They wouldn’t take the time to step over our bodies, ya think? All they care about is power and control, in my opinion. And, their lap dogs, the moronic fools in the MSM, will be herded up like cattle just like the rest of us and hauled off.

If I read the excerpt of an article the other day correctly, a bill was sent over that would allow the Treasury to make all the necessary payments to prevent default, while not allowing the debt ceiling being raised or the partial shutdown being over.

It was refused. Imagine that.

What i find interesting in this article is that if it happens, his supporters will suffer the most.

the only thing these pukes care....about is the fame... the power.. and the money

Evil,,, doesnt CARE

[WayneS]

Now THAT one is not "delegated to the United States by the Constitution", nor is it "prohibited by it to the States", so it would appear that secession IS "reserved to the States respectively, or to the people".

But, I have this vague, nagging, memory from history class that secession might have been tried once before by a few of the several States, and that it ended up being forcefully rejected by the United States.

;-)

I VERY much doubt this.

This year, the Attorney General of Texas, Gregg Abott, signed a contingency plan that he would help the Texas Nationalist Movement in the event of an economic collapse to restore the Republic of Texas to the full glory of the nation it once was. This has led to some serious debate with constitutional lawyers as if it was even possible since the civil war. But Texas remains one state that is still classified as a “Republic” and is one of the only states that can fly its flag at the same level as the US flag.

Thank God I'm a Texan.

God Bless the Republic of Texas.

tried before...yes. but if the alternative is more unconstitutional BOHICA, then I will stand with the patriots.

Actually, this is the “... fundamental transformation of America” which the President wants.

Until we suffer like the rest of the world .. we will remain just an evil rich country.

ISN’T ANYBODY GETTING IT YET ..??

Obamacare is just another factor in the complete transformation of this country. I can still hear the painful cry of the woman who testified before Congress: “The America I grew up in .. I’m terrified it’s slipping away”.

The moment she said that, I just burst into tears and sobbed and sobbed; like somebody had punched me in the gut!

The result of all this chaos .. could be a declaration of martial law - suspending ELECTIONS. Geeeee .. does anybody else realize what’s going on here ..??

[MrB]

If this happens in 11 days... I’m definitely not ready.

[smoothsailing]

Take this for what it's worth.

It's utter crap

[CyberAnt]

This is an interesting point.

Fox Business is saying that the govt collects $200 BILLION and the service on our debt is only $2 BILLION.

Therefore, we will not “default” on our debt.

Can anybody here confirm that ..??

[WayneS]

After all, don’t the ‘social engineers’ preach: “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again”?

[nanetteclaret]

If at first you don’t secede, try try again!

[maddog55]

I did and it’s worth nothing...
