I need that book...

[NutCrackerBoy]

I am definitely intrigued to read this thing ...

[JockoManning]

Sounds good.

" The cardinal importance of the Constitution's Ninth and Tenth Amendments: Just because it's not in the Bill of Rights doesn't mean it's not a right -- and whatever the states didn't let the feds do was left to the states "

[Alas Babylon!]

I thought that amendments 1 through 10 where collectively considered the "Bill of Rights". Aren't they? They were written and passed together.

[BenLurkin]

Actually I think you are correct.

How about this -- the 10th amendment should have been the first.

[King Prout]

this looks interesting.

[King Prout]

actually, "Bill of Rights" is itself a misnomer - look at it: it is in fact a Bill of Limitations restricting what the Feds can do.

How come your link, National Review Book Service, actually goes to http://www.mises.org/fullstory.aspx?Id=1706?

Thank you.

-- whatever the -people- didn't let the feds do was left up to the states, -- provided the States did not infringe upon individual rights as outlined in the Constitution.

Most people tend to forget that some powers are prohibited to the States. [see the 10th]

It is about time this starts to happen. There are far too many PC only versions of history and other matters in circulation. There are legal journals which only promote PC perspectives on law and "social justice" or "sustainable growth" or "local government/codes" or "divorce" or "paternity" or any other number of issues.

Up until recently the non-socialist/PC perspective was forbidden to even be uttered in legal circles. Consider that the Florida Bar ran full bore away from permiting their family law section to lobby to overturn the ban on homosexuals adopting children. (BTW little more than 1/2 of all states do not allow homosexual sex partners to become a second "parent" to their recreational sex partner's child). Only a few short years ago the Florida Bar would have been indifferent to any who don't agree with the left.
