Just Obey Your Oath to Uphold the Constitution! (From Downsize DC)
see this as internet page
You swore an oath to obey the Constitution. Honor that oath. Abide by the Constitution's limits on federal power.
The Constitution isn't perfect, but if you obeyed it...
- There would be no deficit or supposed fiscal cliff, because. . .
- The federal budget would be a fraction of its current size
So I want you to oppose any budget deal that increases taxes or spending. I don't want to fund criminal (unconstitutional) things like...
- medical marijuana raids
- prohibitions on medicines that are freely available elsewhere in the world
- bombings and invasions of countries that have never threatened us
- stationing troops in wealthy countries like Japan, Germany, and South Korea
Nor do I want to fund ...
- bailouts for big banks and failed automakers
- TSA workers who molest and steal from travelers
- FBI and NSA agents who spy on us without warrants
- subsidies to wealthy farmers and corporations
I'd rather...
- see my taxes sent up in flames, or . . .
- pay federal employees to do nothing, rather than . . .
- fund criminal activities that hurt people and violate the Constitution.
Which is to say...
I THINK YOU DO HARMFUL THINGS.
Just obey your Oath of Office.
That simple act would . . .
- end most of the criminality
- reduce the harm you do
- end deficits
- end the supposed justification for tax increases
- give everyone tax breaks, which would mean more funding for the beneficial Voluntary Sector.
So I'm telling you...
DO NOT RAISE TAXES.
DO NOT RAISE SPENDING.
OBEY THE CONSTITUTION!
