Are we good with allowing politicians to shelf the U.S. Constitution until they see fit?

Forced quarantines.
What about our right to assemble?

Preventing citizens from working?
What about our right to pursue happiness, to innovate, to earn a living?

Preventing businesses from operating.
What about our right to personal property?

Forced closures of gun shops.
What about our right to keep and bear arms?

Where are things headed? Is the U.S. Constitution destined to become nothing more than a manual of guidelines to be followed arbitrarily?

“Promote the general welfare” by depriving The People of their constitutional rights?
Is that your spin...you going with that?

We've suspended the COTUS in the past during times of emergency. We'll do it again in the future.

Cite the provision that would allow such a directive would you please?

The creation of a foreign owned fiat currency producer ended much of what is in the constitution. Politicians learned to stay in power by voting in many things for the people. Soon the people demanded those things. And we are all used to having some goodies from it. There is a trade off. To be free but with less, or closer to tyranny and more comfortable. But how long can a fiat currency keep the people satisfied? And how long before it collapses and/or the tyranny becomes complete?

The Constitution died the day Obama moved into the (once) White House, yanked the original copy off the wall, shredded and smoked it. It's just taken this long for anyone else to notice.

Understand: The Constitution you thought you knew is gone.

Want it back?

You won't get that through any political process as those processes exist today.

You'll have to earn it like it's 1775 all over again.
