"Even the red states are addicted to fedgov money. Ain’t gonna happen."

Patriots need to get state lawmakers who have probably never been taught about the federal government's constitutionally limited power to appropriate taxes up to speed with the following constitutional reality.

The so-called “federal” dollars that the states are always begging the federal government for are arguably state revenues that the feds stole from the states by means of unconstitutional federal taxes, taxes that Congress cannot reasonably justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.

"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.

What the Constitutionally-minded States need to do is prepare for the fiscal collapse of the Blue Empire so their places can be where people can live, accumulate assets, and earn income without being at the mercy of the Blue Imperial System. Those who depend on the Blue Empire for their survival - i.e. Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, etc - had better prepare themselves for its collapse. This will help ensure that there can be some stability in the lives of people as the collapse occurs.

The other side is already preparing for their way of doing things. Those who lose favor will have their social media accounts restricted, assets frozen and lose access to being able to use electronic money, get their cars recharged, and more. These Blue fanatics would love to have full power in America like Xi has in China or Putin has in Russia. Its vitally important to ensure there are places in America that can’t be derailed by the fiscal collapse of the Blue Empire.

I would hope that the Rule of Law could prevail. But these Blue thugs took those oaths to uphold the Constitution, they are massively violating our 9th/10th Amendment rights, and continue to take insurrection actions like this 1.7T Omnibus to cause the system to collapse.
