I think the more important point is that the Constitution has apparently been repealed.
Remember during the campaign, when Obama said that it would no longer be acceptable for Americans to set their thermostats without first getting permission from other countries?
We’re there.
I didn’t see the video, but Obama cannot just do this, can he? Doesn’t Congress have to approve?
Repealed? I don’t think it’s ever had any binding legal authority in this country.
“The Declaration of Independence has been Effectively Repealed”
Maybe it was meant to say, The Declaration of Independence should it be repeated?” When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, .....

I’m not a lawyer but..
One word: Nixon’s wage/price controls. As I recall, this wasn’t voluntary. That said, I think much of what Obamachev and congress has or will do can be challenged in the SOTUS.
Unfortunately, companies who took federal money sold their souls.
Knowing what the Cloward-Piven Strategy is clarifies a lot doesn’t it?
