Hello David Edwards, 

Thanks for the friend request and thanks for reading my article. It's great to meet you and I got a great kick out of your message.  Yes. let's talk.  Also, when you get a chance, please check out my blogsite -  http://forloveofgodandcountry.wordpress.com  

Thanks, David.  We are in trouble. 

Thank you for friend request! I keep forgetting to look at my inbox! And, by the way, I enjoy your posts!

David, you left a comment on my page asking about the video I posted in a comment on one of the blogs. Did you like or dislike it? I think it originated on WND.

It is really factual. 

Dave: This was in response to one of my blogs. I believe it was either Regaining Freedom or It’s The Money Stupid, or Open Letter to Congress. They all carry the same message. I posted you comment below.

Anyway, to your question: How can the US Congress plan Defense budgets when the states have (what sounds like) all control over the flow of money into the Federal gov't?

Easy, the same way every successful business does, they project their spending based on the previous year’s results, and take in consideration that there may be some drop in revenue. It should be easy since the tax is a flat tax on the gross receipts of each state with no deductions. The revenue should not change dramatically from year to year.

Next question: When and how do you get two thirds of the states to ratify such a drastic change?

Dave, this is a good question. I don’t believe the congress will pass such a bill let alone the states.

I only present this plan as something to shoot for and to point out there is a better way. If all can see the merit in the plan, who knows it may become a reality.

The only change I would now make to my proposed constitutional changes would be to add a balanced budget amendment. This would seal the fact that the congress would first look to spending cuts before considering a tax increase on the states. Not that the representatives in the senate would vote for a tax increase unless it was an absolute national emergency.

Joseph,

I agree with your stated goals of repealing the 16th and 17th amendments. The rest of your tax structure, I would need more time to ponder. My first question is: How can the US Congress plan Defense budgets when the states have (what sounds like) all control over the flow of money into the Federal gov't?

Another question is: When and how do you get two thirds of the states to ratify such a drastic change?

This is the paper you & Benjamin Franklin helped me with.  You provided the Evidence which proved the connection. 

So are you in Boehner's district?
