Just in case you missed it! look for the article 'Utah Senate Votes to Repeal 17th Amendment' by Christine Rousselle at Townhall.com for February 26. The Utah Senate voted 20-6 to ask the Congress to repeal the 17th Amendment. Why is this significant? "The 17th Amendment was not what the founders of the country had intended and changed the meaning of the role of the senators." This vote is but a small step in a long necessary journey, but it is significant because the very foundation of our Republic was forever weakened by the creation of the 17th Amendment.
This news is good reason to believe that the significance of the language of the Constitution as originally conceived, written and adopted is finally being reexamined and understood. It is not a living document subject to change because of time and circumstance. Perhaps, if only perhaps, the conceived Republic as written and defined might yet receive a life saving transfusion of truth and understanding.
To better understand this Utah vote, turn your thinking to 1913. It was a wonderful year for Woodrow Wilson and all progressives and a horrible setback for those who side with Freedom.
In 1913, Progressives laid the necessary foundation for the intended growth of their basic mind numbing philosophy. The progressive legislative agenda was built the back of three major pieces of legislation. All came to fruition in 1913. Two pieces changed our Constitution and the third provided the perceived bottomless pit of money necessary to accomplish their goals.
16th
Amendment FEDERAL INCOME TAX
This allowed
the federal government a steady flow of money and removed any further action
required by the states.
17th
Amendment DIRECT VOTE FOR STATE SENATORS
This removed
the ability of the states as political bodies to limit federal power.
THE FEDERAL
RESERVE WAS CREATED The FED can print money on demand. This allowed theoretically unlimited leverage on paper money
without the acquiescence of Congress.
