Congress does not have the power to stop this avalanche...

Does anybody else find this statement to be total BS like I do?

LOL! Yeah, I did consider the statement and and it should probably have read “congress has the power but won’t do anything to stop this avalanche.” Unless the decide to regulate avalanches that is. All I know is that everytime one of these new regs pops, it costs consumers more money.

In theory, yes. In practice, no.

For practical purposes, Article I Section 1 has been repealed. No amendment convention, no state ratification debates, . . . it is gone.

Just keep voting.

Yes its BS. Congress and a new President can change all of it if they want. The problem is do they want to? There lies the rub.

It obviously is crap: congress can make law, it can repeal law, and it can withhold funding.
