Ninth Amendment: The Federal, State, County, and Local governments cannot assume that this is a complete list of rights.  Just because some are listed doesn’t mean the citizens don’t have others.
Tenth Amendment: The Federal government cannot exercise any power not delegated to it within this Constitution no matter what.  Not even for so called terror or by twisting the meaning of the Constitution.  All other powers are for the States or the citizens.

The US Constitution was not only meant to unite the States, and make us stronger but to also limit what the Federal government could do so it could never become tyrannical like the British Empire which caused the Revolutionary War.  Our war for independence that caused the birth of the United States Of America.  The Federal government was meant to be a compact between the States that created it, and not a national government.  The States are in essence sovereign nations who in fact have their own Constitutions.  Having all the power in the hands of one central government is a sure recipe for tyranny, and the eradication of individual rights.  Ultimately if the Federal government takes to much power for itself then it’s up to the States, and the citizens to reign in it’s power so that it may once again obey the rock solid law of the land which is the Constitution. 

Currently the States don’t appear to be getting the job done.  It’s up to citizens to elect State Senators, and Representatives who will enforce their 10th amendment rights.  Not just speak out or pass laws they have no intention of enforcing.  The people must also elect US Senators, and Representatives who will reverse unconstitutional Federal laws, and restore our Constitutional Republic.  At present we’re technically a Corporatocracy.  Our government is no longer serving the citizens but rather major multinational corporations, and banks that have strong influence within the legislative, and executive branches.   Indirectly they also have control of the judicial branch since the later two branches appoint Justices to the Supreme Court.

Executive control is easy for the corporations since so much of that branch is never elected, and stays at their job for decades.  The election of a President and Vice-President is meaningless unless said individuals are willing to make radical changes, and go up against the awesome power of the numerous global corporations, and banks.  They’re just happy to attain such a prestigious, and historical position, and work only to serve the corporate powers that be.

Legislative control is achieved through greed.  Insider trading to be exact.  Lobbyists push for legislation that is favorable for the corporations, and banks they represent. Legislation that Senators, and Representatives have pre-knowledge about so they can invest in a way to benefit from said legislation.  If they only passed laws within their Constitutional limits they’d never profit.  In addition lobbyists may pass on insider information about the companies, and industries they’re representing.  There’s a reason why so many of our elected officials in Congress are millionaires.

We the people are the last line of defense for our liberties, and the ultimate enforcement of Constitutional law.  Either we employ the States to protect us from Federal tyranny, and refuse to comply with any unconstitutional laws or we elect honest people who will end the corruption of the US Congress by ending insider trading, reversing unconstitutional laws, and heavily reigning in the power of the Presidency, and the executive branch which illegally makes laws through Executive Orders, and so called regulations.  Only Congress may make law.  The Executive Branch is merely an enforcement mechanism for Congress.  In addition Judges may not legislate from the bench.  If we the people fail in our task of enforcing the Constitution then we will fall into the dark despotism of a corporatist police state.
