This Website

This website has information from the nineties (Articles), some which are of current interest (Current), some historical information (History), and some photographs which I have taken in various parts of the country, illustrating how freely we may travel in this country. There is also a brief biographical sketch of me, so you will know of my experience and qualifications. There will be 2 charts to show the growth of the national debt since 1933, and showing the deficit when it was shown in the Statistical Abstracts. One chart only goes to 1989, while the other goes to 2002. The first is my original chart which I started in 1962. The other is one I did recently, and you will notice a difference in the figures. There is a notation in the Abstracts that those figures are based on a 1996 dollar. Go figure.
It is my opinion that we live in the greatest country in the history of the world, and that we have in our Constitution the most perfect form of government ever devised by man. The Constitution is very succinct, yet provides for our national government and also the sovereignty of each of our states. It has within it methods by which it may be changed to keep it up to date. It is not easily changed because the Founding Fathers did not want it to be subject to frivolous changes. You will read how it may be changed in other parts of this site. Our government has limited powers described in Article I, Section 8. Since the thirties laws have been passed which exceed the powers of government granted in Article I, Section 8. It is for that reason we should return to the principles contained in the Constitution.
Article I, Section 1, gives all legislative powers to the congress, which shall consist of a senate and house of representatives. For some decades, federal judges have made rulings which are considered the law. Clearly, no judicial edict, executive order, or agency/departmental regulation can be considered law which applies to the people. Again, reasons to return to the principles of the Constitution. It is of interest that Congressman Ron Paul (R-Tex) is making an effort to do just that, and he has a number of his colleagues working toward that purpose now, and they call themselves the Liberty Committee. You might want to urge your congressperson to join with him.
