How does leaving out something that you think is worth while the same thing as distortion????

Levin is good on history and the constitution. You din’t work for Reagan. Don’t know if you have a law degree. You don’t have a radio show. You haven’t taken cases to the supreme court.

Guess I will take Mark’s info as solid

Why are you starting to act like a troll?

You like Weiner, we get it.

There is only so much content going into 6-8 minute segments and then some commcommentaryentary.

The Great Compromise had two component parts: apportionment being applied to both representatives and taxes. Mark's distortion is his exclusion of apportionment being tied to both representation and taxation!

Thank God for Mark Levin. One of the true patriots that has always said what needed saying. I’m sure Mark appreciates the
1/2 hour you spent formulating your bullet points to reach a couple hundred people. Come back when you reach millions and maybe you would carry more than an ounce of weight.

Do you really believe the number of people being reached determines the validity of the message?

If we can make 51 percent of America’s population dependent upon an Obama, welfare, food stamp, section 8 housing, college loan check, and now free Obamacare along withFREE BACON, we can blackmail them for their vote, keep ourselves in power and keep the remaining portion of America’s productive population enslaved to pay the bills ____ Obama’s Marxist Free Cheese Democracy, which is designed to establish a federal dictatorship and redistribute the wealth which wage earners, business and investors have worked to create.

Well, if you’re reaching a few million every evening, there must be a history of validity. As an earlier poster typed, brushing over a subject for the sake of brevity, does not make it distortion. Do you have a Doctorate in jurisprudence?

Seems strange that so many people here attack you for your lack of credentials, celebrity status or whatever.

Guess I thought the message was all that mattered.

And a “Doctor of Jurisprudence” is not a big deal; my father graduated from Law school before they used that term and sent him his J.D. in the mail one day.

He said it made him feel like Oz had just bestowed a degree on him. I said he didn’t look like a Scarecrow...

But anyway thanks for the history. Have long wondered why apportionment was not tried. As you’ve shown, the Framers saw it as the equitable solution: the sovereign States would each pay their dues in proportion to their population.

That would keep things close to home, and the “general government” out of people’s lives. It shows how utterly contrary to the Original Intent that the 16th amendment is.

The sooner we repeal this despicable vestige of feudalism the sooner we get back to the Republic that was founded, and was so incredibly successful.

A little over $3,000 per head comes to $1 trillion in tax revenue.
