Talking about several things in class today, I quoted the 10th Amendment - reading verbatim, trying to explain that in my POV the Federal government is (more accurately - SHOULD BE, according to the LAW) severely restricted in its purview. These guys who are sworn to "Uphold and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic" actually scoffed – dismissively, as if the Constitution was subservient to the feel good politics or (dare I say it?!?) the ECOMOMY - grrr....where are we headed?

10th Amendment -

 The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Pretty simple language to me...hmmm....
