Hold the Milk and Pass the Cookies

It is madness to let the federal government have the final say on what the Constitution says and means, vis-a-vis federal powers. The States wrote the Constitution which created the federal government to handle a few specifically described communal needs on behalf of the States. That's it. It was not created to usurp their power and authority over the myriad issues concerning the citizens of those various States. And the federal government certainly was not granted authority to determine what it's powers should and would be over the States and the citizens. That would be madness (just look around us). That which is created can never be greater than that which creates it. The States are not beholden to the federal government; the federal government is beholden to the States. To permit the President, the Congress and the Supreme Court to determine and have final say over what the Constitution says and means and what their powers and authorities are which derive from it, would be like putting children in charge of the cookie jar. Soon there are no more cookies and the kids have tummy aches. Well, our federal government has drained our treasury dry and the nation is quite sick. But don't expect the federal government to fix itself and relinquish power back to the States. Our only hope is for the States to resume their rightful authority and put the federal government back in its place. Soon. Very soon.
