The United States form a young republic, a confederacy which ought ever to be cemented by a union of interests and affection, under the influence of those principles which obtained their independence. ↗

The first grand federalist design...was that of the Bible, most particularly the Hebrew Scriptures or Old Testament... Biblical thought is federal (from the Latin foedus, covenant) from first to last--from God's covenant with Noah establishing the biblical equivalent of what philosophers were later to term Natural Law to the Jews' reaffirmation of the Sinai covenant under the leadership of Ezra and Nehemiah, thereby adopting the Torah as the constitution of their second commonwealth. The covenant motif is central to the biblical world view, the basis of all relationships, the mechanism for defining and allocating authority, and the foundation of the biblical political teaching. ↗

Unknown to its prey, the FED's bite is poisonous, deep, long-lasting and brings financial upheaval and misery to Americans. ↗

Potrei essere qui in quanto qualcuno vuole che sia così. C'è chi lo crede. Dio? dice lei con dolore e ironia nella voce.Se esistesse andrebbe licenziato per giusta causa, incapacità, assenteismo, e poi giustiziato per crudeltà, bruciato per eresia contro le verità che lui stesso ha proclamato. Già fatto, dico io. Già frustato, crocifisso, ucciso e sepolto. Ma pretende l'esistenza, risponde lei, e si sazia feroce dei desideri che ci incidono il cuore. ↗

The federal government neither has the power to site transmission lines, nor do we build them. That's done, as people know, in their own communities. The siting decisions and the permitting is done at the local level, or by state governments if it's interstate in nature. And federal government - this is one area we have no authority. ↗

I was a supporter of the desire, in my section of Nigeria, to leave the federation because it was treated very badly with something that was called genocide in those days. ↗
