1 thought on “Cornell Republicans Speaker Todd Douglas: American Republic on ‘Edge of Abyss’

  1. So. A guy who lived off the government his entire life tells young people that government should not be involved in assisting them. He is certainly entitled to his opinion. A good gig if you can get it. I am sure that Cornell students are smart enough to see through this ideology. Good example: public education. Is there a national interest in making sure young people have access to quality education? Can a society be free if it’s members are not adequately informed and able to use their critical thinking skills? And when an individual state fails to afford protection to US citizens is it not the proper task of the federal government to step in and do so? Or should we stand with George Wallace on the steps of the University of Alabama and refuse entrance to highly qualified minorities in support of the state’s right to control education?
    Of course, these state’s rights constitutional scholars seem to ignore the 14th Amendment, as well as the 9th when they make their cases.
    He should be thankful that he is allowed free speech, freedom to make money and had a career paid for by the taxpayers, who recognized that we need police as part of the “common good” he seems to be opposed to.
    I wonder, does he get a publicly funded pension?
