Prohibition was repealed.
I don't disagree. Personally I think the Federal government got too powerful after the civil war & we really don't even have the same type of government that the founders envisioned.
I'd be somewhat in favor of an Article 5 convention so long as any changes had to be subject to a vote like the President is elected. The Electoral Collage system is absolutely brilliant & gives the individual vote maximum power because a handful of voters can change the outcome of an entire election. If people really want something they need to get out and vote. If you stay home you can't complain if the other side doesn't.
Anyway, good luck to us all.
Well you're not wrong. Most people forget the 9th & 10th amendments and what they actually say.
9. The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
- Basically saying, "just because we listed a few specific Rights here, that doesn't mean those are the only ones The People have."
10. 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.
- The Federal Government is not permitted to just assume new powers because we didn't specifically restrict it here. If it's not specifically listed in this document the government cannot do it.
How far afield of these rules has the Federal strayed? How much longer will The People tolerate it?
Wait, what?
The Constitution is a restriction on the powers of the Federal Government, not on Anthropic. The Federal Government does have the ability to "regulate commerce" under what is called the Commerce Clause in Article 1, Section 8, Clause 3.
I'm not sure what particular law(s) c/would apply here - if any - however I'm certain various courts might have to render a judgement.
You can. With a browser plugin called "Short Stop".

How is this of any significance to humanity? Seems like a weird way to waste both time and money.
Now all my crappy code will crash much faster.
I made my chat font Comic Sans because I think it's funny that the "Supreme Allied Linux Commander" for our organization (me) uses Comic Sans on Skype For Business. Keeps 'em on their toes.
But Brave Browser has no problem blocking them.
The point of advertising is to generate demand (want). The more you can influence people to want your product, the more of your product you're going to sell.
I bought $1000USD of Doge back when it took 12 of them to make a single penny just to have fun with on IRC. We set up a doge wallet bot and used tipping in Doge as a way to encourage productive/constructive comments and contributions to our little channel, as well as educating people about crypto. I ended up giving away at least half of the Doges to various channel dwellers just for the fun of it. (Using random soaks & tips of 100 doge here & there.)
Fast forward to now it's around
I still have quite a bit of Doge left and it has oddly turned out to be one of the most entertaining & enjoyable successful investments I've made.
TO THE MOON!
I always wonder why they don't just move the clock 30 minutes in one direction and then NEVER DO IT AGAIN.
Good luck Rob. Don't be a stranger.
It's 2010 and I thought I'd delete all the old retarded stuff on here and say hi, I'm still alive, and I'm feeling much better now.
