This is without question the most important thread I have ever seen here.

Great find and thank you sincerely for posting this.

I will definitely be forwarding a copy of this to my state legislators and hopefully my state and others will follow suit.

However, I do not think the feds will take this lying down, there are sure to be threats and implications. I remember when Nevada voted to legalize Marijuana and the fed threatened to stop all federal funding to the state and of course Nevada folded to that authority. Although I personally do not use marijuana, I can see no legitimate reason why it should be illegal, it is after all a weed that will grow in any environment. I do not drink either, but that does not mean that alcohol should be illegal.

The fed will most assuredly use every threat and tool available to them to thwart this. I sincerely hope the states that take place in this understand that when the feds cut off their money supply, it will not matter as their citizens will be paying their taxes to the state and not the feds which will more than compensate for the revenue loss.

Finally a state has felt like it has been pushed far enough to grow a pair. I was hoping I would live to see this day come, perhaps I will. This could very well be the most signifigant development in our lifetimes.

If New Hampshire pulls this off and my state decides to stay put, I will most assuredly be moving to New Hampshire.

Three Cheers for New Hampshire.

I too will be forwarding this on to the Ohio reps. Maybe if they get enough we will see something happen here that will stop the criminal actions of the bigger brother state of DC.

Imagine if ALL the states could unite against the federal govt. ?

We could call such a rebellion "The United States of America"

Hell we could even write a constitution, something that would protect our rights and liberties.

And hope that someday, such a union, would not spawn some big self serving monster freakshow in the capitol.

Oh wait....


Thomas Jefferson thought about this, here are a few of his quotes on the subject:

"Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves are its only safe depositories."

"Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny."

"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."

"It behooves every man who values liberty of conscience for himself, to resist invasions of it in the case of others: or their case may, by change of circumstances, become his own."

"My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government."

As is evident, this man had wisdom that transcends time itself. He also said this about debt, tell me, do you see any correlation to our current state in this country?

"It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world."

And yet the common people keep neglecting the lessons of history. Or, for that matter, the government doesn't allow these gems of history to be taught in schools. Because I am absolutely convinced that they KNOW their history and think they can outsmart it and come up with the sure fire answer to establish a tyranny AND keep the people passive and happy.
