Until governors start rejecting from the Feds anything that is outside the enumerated powers, including decisions by scotus not emanating from those powers (they, too, are part of the federal government)... and until those in congress are expelled for violating their oath of office (say, by even submitting gun control or speech control legislation - attacks on the Constitution and so a violation of their oath, making them no longer eligible), nothing will change and the government - IS - of unlimited power.
Look at scotus ruling on EPA: not that the atmosphere and weather are not among the enumerated powers, regardless of the intent of congress... but that this isn’t what congress meant... no one cares what congress means when it violates its limits. The only salient fact is the violation. Dobbs was a 10A case; governors need to use that to refuse anything not within the limits on the Feds.
A good start would be for each state to review the federal budget, subtract all funding for anything outside the enumerated powers (foreign aid, education, energy, foreign and undeclared wars, etc ...), divide the result by the number of American taxpayers, and use that state’s taxation system to collect that state’s portion and send one check to the Feds. 16A allows the Feds to collect taxes from income ... it doesn’t allow them to collect taxes for stuff they are not allowed to do.
You are writing from the correct perspective--of standing up and saying "no more."
However, you still come from an incorrect position. The trick is how they act so the action DOESN'T actually "violate" their oath (by working within its unrealized exception).
The government is NOT of "unlimited" power, at least as it operates directly throughout the Union of States, even as it appears so--quit believing in the make-believe rule of paper tyrants who claim unlimited power. Stop broadcasting THEIR false claims out of your mouth or off your pen.
The "only salient fact" is NOT "the violation", it is in HOW the act which you assert is a violation doesn't end up actually being a violation. The salient fact is how they pull off what should be impossible for them yet do otherwise.
I hope you consider taking me up on my offer to send you a free pdf of my novel, which will explain HOW the scoundrels appear to do what should be impossible for them to pull off, except for their devious actions of effective
