From time to time I read a new book on an old subject. Today's book is a short history of the US beginning prior to the Revolution. This morning I read about James Otis. While his arguments covered British "Writs of Assistance" used to grant royal authority to search any house or any person, the broader question was a citizen's responsibility to obey laws they have no hand in making.
That was in 1761. Today, in 2018 the majority of the Federal Laws are crafted, not by the Legislative Branch, limited by the Constitution, but by Executive Branch Independent Agencies, in an unconstitutional fashion. These Independent agencies embody tyranny. The United States is flooded with Executive Branch Independent Agencies. The last time I searched for them I came up with more than 400 agencies.
Given their lack of Constitutional authority, given their anti-republican nature, should we stop obeying the laws they impose on us?
We are guaranteed a republican form of government under our Constitution. Isn't it time to rebel against the unconstitutional actions of the Legislative and the Executive Branches and take back our right of self-governance?
