May I please have your interpretation of Article IV, Section 2, paragraph 1?

I realize that you asked this of others but my reading is that this paragraph means that the privileges and immunities guaranteed under the constitution will be reciprocal throughout the states of the union. I suggest that this was amplified in Amendment 14, Secton 1 in the equal protections clause.

I have been reading all of your flags betty, even if I do not always reply. I wish for you blessings as we this week commemorate our redemption and the victory of life over death.

BTW did you ever get around to the book by Roger Penrose I suggested ? Best to you, bb.

Dukie, I wish I'd known you'd replied here before I replied to your private message. I won't reiterate that reply beyond saying that the above is my sense of Article IV, Section 2, paragraph 1, too.

BTW, I went and read your excellent editorial on Pennsylvania's inheritance tax that ran in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review on March 24th. Congratulations on an extremely well-conceived, well-reasoned, and well-written piece! Did you post it here at FR? Wish you would if you haven't! It's got lots of stuff in it I could get really "exercised" about, especially this silly notion that an inheritance tax is "justified" on "social equity" principles to break up intergenerational concentrations of wealth.... Looks to me like the Penn. inheritance tax is a tad irrational, as you ably demonstrate.

Thanks for writing, Dukie. All my very best, bb.
