I have a question,
It says at the top….
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Aren’t we in a financial problem? Didnt the first amendment get revoked? The fourth? So my question is
Why are the people that took away our constitution able to use it for their own use?
And
Why are we spending money we don’t have?
If I being a responsible citizen should not insure debt I can not pay for, or open new credit accounts I can not pay for, I can be ruined by the credit reporting agencies for everything I want to purchase or buy required by laws to have, because of my buying history or payment history.
That just does not make sense to me.
