A friend of mine was elected to the House of Delegates here in Virginia. When he arrived someone approached him asking for support on a bill. He said it looked good and he was inclined to support it. Then a veteran legislator took him aside and explained that this was coming from such and such group, it used to look like this and was defeated, then it came back as this and that too was defeated, and now it is this bill. It is still crap, don't v**e for it. Such experienced mentors are worth their weight in Gold. Do not v**e for Term Limits.

America was founded to be a new idea. The People would control the Government, and the Government would work for the people rather than it owning and controlling them.
We have been distracted from this dedication. We must see and understand the problem, and then we must devise an effective and strong response.

It is true that we are under assault and that this is a fight to the death, theirs or ours.

This is more than Sea to Shining Sea, this is Globalism. It is different from fair trade because it seeks to erase nations and boarders. Such conduct exposes us to all of those other nasty Governments out there that our Nation was created to protect us from. The world is full of nasty dictators and despots who wish to profit to an excessive degree by enslaving us. We are not ready for one world Government.

I really love the Trump approach. He took office without chasing anyone out. Then he waited to see who would pull a knife. He controlled the major threats, but basically watched and collected evidence. This evidence is piling up. He will sew it all together into suit later. It will be spectacular.

Thank you.

Fix this before you leave office, please!

Here is what has gone wrong. The Powers that were divided between the Branches of Gov have been redistributed. George Washington, in 1796, warned us to not let this happen, but politicians wanted to control Spending so they did a quid pro quo with the President (FDR). Now he can set the agenda and implement it while they Raise Revenue split it up and take it home. What could go wrong with that system? Thomas Jefferson said (September 1789) President Spends - Congress Pays, so the Annual Spending Bill is unconstitutional. Congress is given the powers listed in Article One; Section 7. They are Raise Revenue (To Pay Bills with) and Order Resolve, and V**e (Which is Decision making, Memory, and Command and Control of what the Government will do) That constitutes the Thought Process. The Congress is supposed to be the Architect that designs what the Government will do, and the President is supposed to make it happen.
Please call upon the Court before you leave office. Don't let that failure be an embarrassment upon your record of service.
Sincerely, Richard Mondale

I do hope that the Convention of the States happens and has the effect you describe. Two things about Hired Representation: 1 people hold the v**es so the rich can't field a large delegation unless they pay for a lot of v**es. That is good for the poor. 2 The best way to stop a big money lobbyist is with a big money lobbyist working for you. I want to throw them all together. What group agrees with you? Who could represent you?

I have commented on Taxes several times. I have devised a new system that I call the Banker's Tax. It is taken whenever someone decides to spend money. This does several beneficial things. It causes money to build up in Savings. It eliminates the Cost of Calculating. It puts all of those costs onto the Banks. Banks pay interest on Savings so eventually the interest will equal or exceed the 5% tax, so the Bank Pays your tax. Also, this is entirely a tax on the fiat money system. Let the FED support our Government. My Banker's Tax takes tax out of every t***saction. It does not care who you are, what you are buying, or why you want it. Thus this tax can be minimized by buying direct from the factory. This will encourage local sources. It is also a tax on only us, so our exports will no longer be excessively over priced.
The one thing you said that I disagree with is eliminate the Corporate tax. I am in competition with the Corporations. You are too. I want them to play by the same rules I have to follow.

The way I have devised to eliminate politicians is to do away with elected representation. By substituting Hired Representation we can all have the exact Representation that we want, wh**ever that is. A person might wish to assign his v**e to a single issue group, or he may choose a more well rounded group. He can also move his assignment from one group to another to add extra strength to a favored position when an important issue is being v**ed. My intention is to absorb all of "K" Street, Capitol Hill, and every single wanna be representative in the entire population. There should be 15000 or more Representatives. Let the games begin. This will be too big for DC. It will have to be moved to the web.

We have to get rid of Politicians and the distortions they have inflicted upon our Constitution. We have Enemies foreign and domestic. We are being eaten alive. We must fix the system in order to address the threat.

The Convention of the States should be fairly safe. Each State gets one v**e. Most States are not nuts and over the edge. Two thirds of them have to agree to what ever the Convention proposes, so this should be the Liberals Worst Nightmare.

Thank you that is very interesting. The Constitution says that the Congress has the Power to Raise Revenue, so the IRS should be head quartered in the Capitol Building. But, no politician wants to be associated with Taxes.

I agree. The question is what direction is the answer from here. My posting outlines the problem that has been created by the politicians. They needed to make the changes they made because they are politicians. The solution is to do away with all of them. That is the work that the Convention of the States should undertake. I wish you and them well. I expect the Convention to happen, but there is a problem. The delegates will be chosen by the State Governments who have a totally different agenda. I can't guarentee that I will be there. I will pull every string I can find but?
