    No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

    v. Property

    Any person whose property has been levied upon shall have the right to pay the amount due, together with the expenses of the proceeding, if any, to the Secretary at any time prior to the sale thereof, and upon such payment the Secretary shall restore such property to him, and all further proceedings in connection with the levy on such property shall cease from the time of such payment.

    That was the second National Treasure movie with Nicholas CAGE.

    I grabbed the clip because I had long noticed that the Thirteenth Amendment (the slavery one) speaks of the United States in the plural while the Fourteenth Amendment speaks of the United States in a non-specific manner as to singular or plural.

    Thank you. Looks like an interesting movie. As to the topic of the thread, I agree the emergency needs to be ended.

    By the way, I was posting here as Seosaidh, but decided to use my real name instead. Hope that's okay with admin.

    Talk about self assurance:

    A problem arose because seven states had seceded from the Union by February 1861 and four more left in April of that year.

    However, the patriotic Treasury viewed the situation as temporary and proceeded to include 34 spikes on its seal.

    The note shown below was issued in 1862.

    And the power and dignity of the home governments will be restored.

    This measure should be supported by the governors and legislators of all the states. Every state in the Union now contributes in income taxes to the federal government more than it gets back in grants-in-aid; this is inevitable, because the cost of maintaining the huge federal machinery must come out of the taxes before the citizen can get anything.

    With the abolition of income taxation the states will be better able to serve its citizens, and because the state governments are closer and more responsive to the will of the people, there is greater chance that the citizens will get their full dollar’s worth in services.
