Last week, I reported on this blog that the New Hampshire Legislature made a dramatic declaration warning the federal government that they risk "nullifying the Constitution."
Within the past 7 days, eight other U.S. states have made similar declarations of their sovereignty!
Clearly something "big" is up. These types of actions by state legislatures rarely if ever take place, and I know of absolutely no time in US history when so many states made such declarations within such a short period of time.
WHAT IF. . . . . .
The states disband the federal government; which is within their power to do via Constitutional Convention, then walk away from the entire $20 TRILLION U.S. National Debt?
They could tell the creditors to go collect the money from the people who borrowed it. . . . . Oh, wait. . . . . . they no longer exist . . . . . too bad. Bye.
We could be witnessing the foundation of the biggest financial fuck-job in the history of the world as US states dissolve the federal government that borrowed all the money!
Below are links to the nine states (so far) that have made sovereignty declarations of one type or another.
