I'm glad to see this. If we got out of it before, we can get out of it again.

In some ways, we didn't get out of it. See your pay stub and your tax bill -- and the proliferation of various government agencies in the federal bureaucracy.

We got out of it when the Supreme Court ruled that the NRA was unconstitutional.

Who with standing has the, um, you know, to do that today?


The bankers would be the perfect plaintiffs, since they are affected most directly, AND their institutional take-over by the administration is one of the most damaging to our system of economics and liberty.

But only crickets chirp.

So far.

Well, I'm reading Mark Levin's book, which makes the case that we didn't get out of it.
