Yes, there's nothing like that CRAZY Fourth Amendment, is there?

Congratulations and thanks to our friend John Berlau for being one of the first to notice this. His work at the Competitive Enterprise Institute really helps keep tabs on the (sad) growth of the police state.

As Gard has spelled out in "Live Free or Die", the health care market is a market just like any other. Government manipulation of it has increased costs, decreased choices, and led to even more cries from Americans that they need help. As the vicious cycle continues, the same government pinheads who caused the problems now step up to "solve the problems of the market". Anyone with any understanding of the history of federal health insurance legislation and its negative consequences knows that if the market were LEFT ALONE, it would reduce costs, and increase efficiency.

Thomas Jefferson once said that he would rather have a vibrant news media than a government. Too bad we don't have the first, and the second is strangling private enterprise and the morality of private interaction.

Take a look! Remember, border control is NOT a federal responsibility, according to the US Constitution.

Please spread the word about tomorrow, and try to e-mail the senators listed in this post! Many thanks to the NH Liberty Alliance and Granite State ID!

When: 1:00 PM, Tuesday, March 25th
Where: LOB 304 [ Map ]
Why: SB434 - AN ACT relative to providers of electronic communication services and an extension for compliance with the REAL ID Act of 2005.
What: House public hearing. Standard Hearing rules apply - Blue sheet to support or oppose, pink card to speak. Make no speech longer than 5 minutes (3 is better); don't repeat what others have said.

Great to see people standing up for the Constitution, if that's what these politicians who are operating in an unconstitutional fashion keep spouting is the totem which is America's set of fundamental rules.

WOW, is this ever just the icing on the government cake.

Take a look at this article that appeared in the New London paper "The Day":

By Kevin Dale ,
Published on 3/14/2008 in Home »Business »Business Main Photo New London — Faced with a tight lending climate, the Corcoran Jennison company has asked the Federal Housing Authority to back an $11.5 million loan to fund the long-delayed construction of housing on the Fort Trumbull peninsula.

On March 7, 2008, Gardner Goldsmith was excited to have an opportunity to feature the great insights of a modern marvel, Glenn Jacobs. Glenn is not only the well-known man behind the WWE sensation "Kane", he is also a great defender and promoter of liberty.

The Constitution gives the federal government the power to create a US Postal Service, but not to create one that abridges the 4th Amendment, and not one that makes competition illegal.

Check out this story, and wonder if the Founding Fathers might have made a mistake granting the power to create a Post Office.

Then look up the story of Lysander Spooner, of Massachusetts. He started a private postal service in the 1800's, and it operated faster and cheaper than the USPS. What happened? The government shut him down, of course. Bureaucrats HATE competition.

Take a look at his one, and ask yourself, just where do the politicians get the gall to take money from people, force their kids into bad government schools, and then tell the kids that they can't criticize the system?

Wow. http://apnews.myway.com/article/20080305/D8V7BKM00.html

Remember, it's "for the children".

... and despite the anti-economic nature of such federal regulation.

Listen to the Audio file for 2-25 to hear more about this bureaucratic mess, and take mental notes on Gardner Goldsmith's statements regarding the Constitutional prohibition against Congress ceding powers to other bodies. Also note, as Gard observes, that the "power" to regulate internet content, pricing, or ANYTHING, is not within the federal government's constitutional purview.

Here is the latest news on the story:

Of course, to have "standing", one must show that harm has been done to him, but in order to show this, the ACLU must show that its members, or those joining the suit, have been wiretapped without warrants. The only trouble IS, that the federal government holds all those records, and WILL NOT release them. Can you say, "catch 22"?

If you get the opportunity, get a copy of Gardner's book, "Live Free or Die", and you will be able to read how the current US Administration has disregarded many Constitutional safeguards against invasive federal government. The link is right here, at the website!
