The democrats will eventually UNDO everything. It's only a matter of time.

The grass root method if engaging the masses to force congress to implement the fair tax, abolish the IRS and repeal the 16th amendment doesn't stop there. The upper hand, as it should be, will be with the people.

The carpets will be in perpetual clean mode and thus there will be no step backwards. The masses, as they will have demonstrated their power, will scream, "get the dirt before it hits the carpet".

Oh, yes, the masses will rise to the occasion. Did the masses rise to the occasion when the gold standard was abandoned? How about the silver standard? That was the government's way of controlling and hording precious metals. It also made the dollar worth nothing. What about the implementation of the income tax? No one rose then.

Did the individual citizens of their respective states balk when state governments relinquished their control to the federal government? No. What about all of the sideline taxes (gas, cigarettes, alcohol, etc...)?

By the way, eminent domain has been an issue for years. Did the nation rise up against the Supreme Court? No. How about the people within the affected communities/states? Hmmm...People gripe about governmental policies/laws that threaten their liberty but they won't even take the time to telephone or write to their representatives.

The only real statesman is Ron Paul. As far as established (corrupt) politicians are concerned, Representative Paul is radioactive. Read his weekly alerts on his web page. You will see for yourself that he is truly devoted to the Republic.

The only difference between the Democrats and the Republicans is suicide as opposed to terminal illness.

You have the order precisely backwards. And until you reverse it, you will never get any traction.
