Constitutional Convention Promoters Like Marie Antoinette Say “Let them eat cake”

The statement “Let them eat cake” is commonly attributed to Queen Marie Antoinette, while being so ignorant & naive as to not understand the reality that when the people have no bread, that also means that the people have no cake.
Historians find it noteworthy that anyone could be so naive.
The mobs of the French people also certainly found it to be an outrage.
While we muse about the foolishness of the past, we should ask ourselves whether such naive foolishness still exists. Today we see a mass movement that is so naive that they make Marie Antoinette look clever & astute.
The fact is that every spending bill must be passed by the House.
Every Congressman must be re-elected every two years.
The fact is that we cannot get 51% of the voters to demand that elected representatives balance the budget.
Of course 51% of the voters can also limit terms on any election day.
Yet today there exists a movement that goes beyond the naivete of Marie Antoinette’s statement: “Let them eat cake”:
The assertion is that; while we do not have enough public awareness to use a process that requires only 51% of the voters, we will be able to prevail with another process, which requires three fourths of the state legislatures.
There seems to be no notice taken of the fact that all of these state legislators are elected by the same voters, who could change the congressman at any election.
These state legislators are to select some assortment of delegates, who will not be elected directly by the people. The illusion is that this group of delegates, who will not be elected directly by the people, will save the people from these elected congressmen who continuously vote for an unbalanced budget. 
“They have no bread, so let them eat cake”
The illusion is that this group of delegates, will be men like those who were at that Constitutional Convention of 1789. Those were the leaders of a freedom movement; which had just defeated a tyranny.  Who will be the delegates to a convention this time? George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, & James Madison will not be there. How many states are there TODAY, which would ratify the constitution for the “Union of Soviet Socialist America”?
Go down to your State House & talk with your current elected officials. Can you consistently pass legislation that protects you from unconstitutional usurpation now? What is to stop them from again throwing the whole thing out, & again changing the rules for ratification?
Do these legislatures consistently pass legislation that protects us from unconstitutional usurpation now? We are being told that it is BECAUSE OF all of the unconstitutional usurpation that we need to amend the constitution. That which the constitution already says should not be done, is what is being done. So we are told that we need to TELL THEM AGAIN, by writing another amendment, that this is what they should not do. Try this: Put some money on the sidewalk, & put a sign out there that says no one is allowed to steal that money. You come back the next day & the money is gone. So what are you going to do? Put some more money on the sidewalk? But this time you are going to put TWO signs out there that says no one is allowed to steal that money.
Do we have the votes now, in our state legislature, or in ANY state legislature, to stand up against unconstitutional federal usurpation? If we did they would have already nullified Obamacare, & they would have already stopped the federal government from infringing on the right to keep & bear arms, & so many other things.
We are being told that states cannot nullify unconstitutional federal usurpations, but it has been done over & over again.
There was a time when congress passed a law called The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, which mandated that states to which escaped slaves fled, were obligated to return them to the slave masters upon their discovery. This law also subjected persons, who helped runaway slaves to criminal sanctions. In 1854, the Wisconsin Supreme Court declared the Fugitive Slave Act to be unconstitutional, without regard to the rulings of the federal government. The Vermont legislature approved the “Habeas Corpus Law,” requiring Vermont judicial & law enforcement officials to assist captured fugitive slaves. “Jury nullification” took effect as local juries acquitted people who were accused of violating the Fugitive Slave Act. Ultimately the Fugitive Slave Act was not enforced in any state where slavery was not condoned.
At one time there was the Alien & Sedition Act, which made it illegal to criticize the President. In 1798 Jefferson & Madison drafted The Kentucky Resolutions & the Virginia Resolutions, which declared the Alien & Sedition Act to be null & void.
Prohibition was repealed because it was unenforceable & widely ignored. Prohibition was CONSTITUTIONAL because it resulted from an amendment to the Constitution. Regardless of this, prohibition was nullified because it was not the will of the people.
