I must concur with the dangling of the carrot statement and being better off, but I do wonder if the State Reps look at it like they are trying to get some of our money back.
Maybe so, but I would surely believe the States are fighting for us, if they did take action.
I think those States claiming sovereignty are making a good first step.
But to actually break ranks from the Union, I still think it wont actually happen. If the people in those States chose to break ranks, I would support them. Spending our children's money is a immoral act that I can not support.
The Fed is out of hand and I can not see Thomas Jefferson, Washington, Paine, Henry, and others who gave us freedom supporting the actions of the Federal guvmint today.
I do think that to break ranks with the Union would be a bad idea unless severely provoked because it might place us in more danger from our foreign enemies.
