We must give them(the Federal Government) a fair chance to right themselves and redress our grievances.
When our demands fall on death ears in the court we will have more solid grounds upon which to implement nullification and if necessary secession.

Until that time we should openly act as if this bill is unconstitutional and unenforceable.

Demand an injunction to prevent harm to the peoples rights!
and if one is denied provide for one ourselves thou nullification and civil disobedience.

I don’t trust SCOTUS to do the right thing either but we would be no better then them if we did not at least give them a chance to do the right thing.

I am beginning to think the best means is for the "several states" to convene a constitutional convention (only takes two-thirds (i.e., 33) and congress has NO role) for the purposes of proposing an amendment that requires a balanced federal budget unless authorized by 3/4ths of both houses and and requiring all mandates on the states also require 3/4ths of both houses. The states can then ratify this amendment by 3/4ths of the states (again without any congressional intervention) and it will be the supreme law of the land. Congress has NO backbone to control spending.
