I admire the chutzpah, but those so-called courts of justice will smack this down in short order. I think a better tact would be to simply make AZ a very difficult state to govern.

Try this for starters: an initiative to forbid state or local jails or prisons from housing Federal prisoners. You could also forbid localities from receiving any funds from Federal asset forfeiture.

Very true. It has occurred to several FReepers that perhaps the leftists are actually pushing towards a divorce. Ultimately, the conservatives will do what they can to confound the leftists dream of setting up a socialist paradise. Poltics makes for strange bedfellows.

Most of us would be OK, for example, if California voted to go Communist so long as the rest of our states were left alone.

Unfortunately, we won't be left alone - for the same reason we all have to use "no-flo" toilets because Kalifornia has a water shortage. While the Marxists loved the idea, it was federalized because business did not want to produce 2 different kinds of water closets.

When Feds withhold rightful money going to Arizona..... Arizona announces it is asking all Arizona taxpayers to send Federale taxes to Arizona state Gov’t to be held in escrow. Then used in place of Federale funds witheld
