The federal government is exercising powers it does not constitutionally have. What are the chances this will change? Next to none. From an article by John Stossel

…the U.S. government says its drug laws trump the states laws, and in 2005, the Supreme Court agreed.

This is not the way it was supposed to work. The constitutional plan presented in the Federalist Papers delegated only a few powers to the federal government, with the rest reserved to the states. The system was hailed for its genius.

While this is specifically talking about drug laws it applies to almost any area the Feds get into. Which party will keep this from happening? Or slow it down? Come on…neither wants that to happen. Both ignore the limits put on the federal government by the Constitution. And most Americans are too into celebrity watching, who’s going to be the next American Idol or win the Superbowl to even care. Not that those aren’t interesting events but come on. Do you want someone in DC deciding what and how your children are taught? How much influence do you think a person can have on Washington as opposed to your state or county?
