Episode #90 The Progressive Amendments Part 1 (16th and 17th)

The 16th and 17th amendments as well as the creation of the Federal Reserve all happened in 1913. Talk about a bad year for liberty. In this episode your favorite obscure social studies teacher fights against rising depression and holds back his dark thoughts in order to discuss two of the worst amendments to the U.S. Constitution. In his humble opinion of course. The 16th and 17th amendments, as Mr. Palumbo notes, represent the deathblow to the American republic as founded and are the origin of many of the governmental as well as economic problems we're experiencing today.
