I live in Amish country, I know hundreds of them, I'm in their homes daily............they have no idea how this beast is coming for them, how it will affect their lifestyle! They are all conservatives, big Trump supporters, I keep telling them to register and vote, but they will not do it!
Yep, but this is nothing new, as a small farmer in Ohio was persecuted and fined by the federal government during the New Deal era in the early '40's and lost in a famous Supreme Court case, Wickard v. Filburn. That notoriously unconstitutional decision opened the floodgates for Congress to use federal government power to basically do whatever they pleased to regulate virtually any kind of commerce in goods or services within the United States. In the last 100 years or so, the federal bureaucracy has essentially replaced the Congress as a lawmaking body since the unelected bureaucrats in most federal agencies have become lawmaking bodies unto themselves by using their rulemaking authority to impose and enforce mandates on the American people and their private businesses. To this day it has not been overturned, but we can only hope and pray that constitutional logic and common sense may prevail one day. It's way past time for an Article V Convention of States in order that the States may restore individual liberty and bind an overreaching federal government with the chains of the Constitution.
