Williams and Stossel on States' Rights

Two good pieces.

Walter E. Williams: States Rebellion Pending: "Our Colonial ancestors petitioned and pleaded with King George III to get his boot off their necks. He ignored their pleas, and in 1776, they rightfully declared unilateral independence and went to war. Today it's the same story except Congress is the one usurping the rights of the people and the states, making King George's actions look mild in comparison."

John Stossel: Butt Out, Feds: "Authorities raided Charlie Lynch's California home. 'They say, 'Search warrant! Open the door, or we're gonna tear it down!' Lynch told me for my ABC special 'Bailouts and Bull'. 'I opened the door, and about 10 to 15 agents with shields, bulletproof vests, guns, masks. [They] threw me on the ground and ... had a gun to the back of my head.'"
