Editorial: Give Me Liberty, Or Give Me Death . . . Patrick Henry - Galganov.com

I am not a US Constitutional Expert, which puts me on an even keel with Barack Obama. 

And in spite of the fact that I am a Canadian, I probably know more about the American Constitution than most of the men and women who occupy the Congress.

THE GENIUS OF THE AMERICAN CONSTITUTION . . . is how brief this modern Magna Carta is, unlike most government laws that are so top-heavy with nonsense, that they are functionally unintelligible. 

UNDERSTAND THIS . . . The more complicated laws are, the less JUST they are. And the more they are written for and by the elite – the less they are written for the people. 

In this day and age, in the USA and in Canada where I live, our government representatives make laws no one can understand, which can ONLY be interpreted by the lawmakers, opposed to the people for whom the laws re supposedly made.

THE TRUTH IS IN THE SIMPLICITY: 

As I’ve written many times . . . the genius of the American Constitution is in its simplicity, understandability and presentation. 

For instance . . . instead of the Constitution telling the government what it cannot do, it simply states what the government can do. And if what the government can do is not written into the Constitution, the government simply cannot do it. 

What can be simpler than that?
