Ponder This

Constitution Study Live Q&A – 4/8/2021

Undiscovered Country

I don’t know who said it, but I’ve heard the future described as the undiscovered country. Today, I have some undiscovered country to ponder with you.

256 – State Monetary Practice

250 – Does government rule the people?

This country was formed with a radical idea, that the people rule the government rather than the government ruling the people. That idea has been eroded almost since the beginning.

So today I want to ponder the power structure the Framers created, compare it to how we live today, and consider some ideas to preserve rights and liberties in America.

248 – More Examples of State’s Infringing on Rights and Liberties
