Means of combating the expansion of the feds

[rupol2000]

Let's collect here a complete list of all possible means. I won't number it, just list it.



The right to the state militia.

On the territory of the United States, according to the constitution, it is allowed to use silver and gold as money to pay debts (Article 1 section 10). That's enough to take federal money out of circulation. Thus, any state can put pressure on the feds, threatening to abandon federal banknotes.

Head shots

This is included in the content of the 2nd amendment - this is actually the right to rebellion.

Mass civil disobedience. The only power they really have over us is that which we have granted. We take it away.
The real way to stop them is refuse to pay the taxes. Starve the monster into submission.
If they can do it to us, we can do it to them

A "Convention of States" to add amendments to the Constitution:

* Election Reform, only US citizens 18 and older may vote, ID required, mail-in signature matching, mail-in by excuse only, etc
* Ensure that apportionment of Representatives be set by counting only citizens in the census
* Allow the President a "line item veto" (to reduce wasteful spending)
* Clarify the 14th Amendment that only US citizens can make a US citizen, otherwise we get "anchor babies from Russia, China, and Mexico.
* The US Supreme court shall have not more than 9 justices.
* Immigration reform, no longer admit for fleeing oppression, only merit based immigration as approved.

Balanced budget amendment??

Clarify the 14th Amendment that only US citizens can make a US citizen, otherwise we get "anchor babies from Russia, China, and Mexico.

I think that for the Mexicans it need to make an exception here, because they are strengthening the anti-federal right wing.
