On the contrary, the Rule of Law states that the law stands until it is changed. If you want to alter the terms of your social contract, then we live in a representative society and you are free to do so...
through the Amendment process. If you wish to strip police powers from the States and transfer them to the Federal Government, that's fine. It requires an Amendment process.
But hey, if that changes, fantastic. Please let me know what I can do so as to determine my own social contract as applies to Social Security, because I would much rather stop paying that tax and take care of my own daggum retirement. After all, Roosevelt and everyone who voted on that is dead, right?
That can be true, in many cases, and in many cases, it is not. For example, we do not say that the ability to speak to billions of people now by going viral on the internet means that the government should start censoring speech.
I have no problem allowing legislation to adequately adapt to the needs of men of the day. I just want it to be done
legally. If you have a problem with the Police Powers of the States, then you need to alter that
legally.
