Sheriff Mack Part III

By

In the chapter of The County Sheriff on barriers, Sheriff Richard Mack offers the following insight on Supreme Court Justice Scalia’s 10th Amendment ruling: “The power of the Federal Government would be augmented immeasurably if it were able to impress into its service—and at no cost to itself—the police officers of the 50 States.” Mack writes that the federal government does not have the power or authority to “impress” the police from the states into federal regulatory programs.

They are already paying more than their fair share, and still the Radical Progressive Movement wants more tax dollars to feed its wealth-redistribution machine. It’s unconscionable. – Dick Young
