Is this what it has come to?

“The House first tried to defund ObamaCare. Then, it tried to delay the whole law and then just the individual mandate. In the final hours before the midnight deadline, the House ended with a simple proposal. It would agree to fund the government, if the Senate agreed to scrap the special subsidies lawmakers and staff receive to purchase health insurance. The final House proposal only effected people on Capitol Hill. Harry Reid said, effectively, we’ll shut down the government to keep our subsidies.” Mike Flynn

(in layman terms: Congress didn’t want to have to abide by Obamacare … didn’t want to live by the Law they would pass … so they shut down the government instead)

The Federalist Papers shares some safety nets so the government wouldn’t get out of control. The Federalist Papers are a series of 85 articles and essays written by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay promoting the ratification of the United States Constitution.

Federalist Paper #57– “[Congress] can make no law which will not have its full operation on themselves and their friends, as well as on the great mass of the society.”

“[If the people of America] shall ever be so far debased as to tolerate a law not obligatory on the legislature, as well as on the people, the people will be prepared to tolerate any thing but liberty.”

“The American people are that far debased from the perspective of Madison and Hamilton, a government that exempts themselves from the laws they pass for everyone else is the very definition of ‘tyranny’.”  Jimmy

And there we are!  Seriously… it’s going down hill fast.  Prepare to head toward the hills people.
