With the size and scope of government these questions, and similar ones, have eluded many of us for a long time. But there is an answer.
The founding generation fought and died to protect that answer. They tried to cement it in stone after the revolution with the Articles of Confederation. Our liberties came under attack in the Philadelphia Convention of 1787, with a proposal not just limited to amending the Articles as the Convention was called to do, but to create a powerful new central Government with the ability to nullify virtually all of the States laws and liberties. But those efforts were thwarted in the Convention, and in the debates on ratification. Finally, they were meant to be completely destroyed by passage of the Bill of Rights, to ensure that the States would retain their sovereignty while assigning specific delegated powers to a new limited government body.
Finally there is someone to remind us of what the founders gave us. Someone to give us a practical, real world plan, with steps you and I can take immediately to begin the process of restoring America to it's former glory. americanvision.org has laid out a "plan of attack" so to speak, led by Joel McDurmon to do just that.
