Christy McLaughlin: Federal Government Overreach

Florida

ORGANIZATIONS IN THIS STORY

The United States is founded upon a checks and balance system in which the most powerful check on an overreaching government is the American Citizen. The citizen was given the voting power to form and direct governments’ power. But, in the last several decades there has been a pervasive consolidation and nearly tyrannical centralized control dictated from D.C. The current power of the Federal government vastly exceeds the scope of powers granted in the original United States Constitution. In order to maintain that power, the ruling class, mostly dominated by deeply entrenched elitists executed the greatest election theft ever in the history of the United States. The consent of the people was usurped by a coordinated, calculated criminal attack.

The following are legislative limits on Federal government abuses of power:

  1. Voter I.D. requirement for federal elections: The days of dead people voting, double/triple voting, hundreds of votes from the same non-existing address, universal mail-in ballots, ballot harvesting, unmonitored ballot boxes, chain of custody discrepancies with thousands of post deadline counting, blocking poll observers, poll workers with access to thumb-drives and changing databases and voting machines that can be easily hacked and other security breaches must come to an end. The United States of America is not a third world country. The very basis of a civilized, free people is a fair and accurate election.
  2. Congressional Term Limits: Members of Congress should be limited to 12 years in either the House or Senate. The founding fathers intended for Congress representatives to be one with the people rather than elitist career politicians that are unaccountable. These millionaire legislators abuse their power with insider trading and special interest connections. Incumbent re-election rates never dip below ninety-percent (90%) and sometimes are as high as ninety-eight (98%) giving them a tremendously unfair advantage in all elections. There are only 525 congressional representatives out of 323 million in population. Most of those 525 maintain power for decades. It is time that we give more persons a try at running this nation.
  3. Single Subject Rule: All federal legislation must be transparent and limited to one subject. The American taxpayer has been fleeced for decades with middle of the night votes on thousand page bills that nobody has read or has time to read.
  4. Draining the Swamp: Defund and eventually abolish the Departments of Education, Housing and Urban Development, and Agriculture at least and return those functions back to the states. Those Federal entities that are not enumerated power in the United States Constitution and therefore shouldn’t exist.
  5. Remove Immunity from Section 230 Free Speech is the bedrock of a free society. Social media companies have become the propaganda arm of the leftist elitist. Facebook, Google, YouTube, Instagram, Twitter hold a virtual monopoly on communication and exchange of information. Their chokehold on communication requires them to be held to a higher standard. Let the users have a private cause of actions to ask the court for fairness. Section 230 must be repealed in part.
