having pushed the albany plan of union during the french and indian war, franklin introduced a similar draft constitution for the colonies in july of 1775. it ends up not being adopted, they go the articles of confederation that were too weak but we will get to that. clearly, federal nature with each colony retaining control over matters peculiar to it, franklin's draft held concepts that he later pushed at the constitutional convention. including apportionment representation in congress, and centralize power over interstate commerce or colonial commas, war, peace, foreign affairs, western lands, he is a great leader and the need for the frontier. such domestic matters is that necessary to the general welfare. these would become exactly the same issues, that by the end of the war washington also embraced and he wrote his final great document as a general before stepping down. this circular letter to the state where he said this article of confederation isn't working, we have chaos. and the same issues, because they worked with franklin, the same issues franklin raised he raised in a ci

"the wall street journal" laid it out clearly for us this week when they said democrats in albany are claiming to be victims of events that are out of their control, but they have increased annual spending by $43 billion since 2010, about $570,000 for each additional person. $570,000. florida's annual budget has increased by $28 billion while it's population has grown by 2.7 million, a $10,400 increase per new resident. new york already has a top state and local tax rate of 12.7% while florida has no income tax. new york has a growing budget deficit while mr. scott as governor of florida inherited a large deficit but built a surplus and paid downstate debt. the difference is spending. "the wall street journal" concluded the policy question is why taxpayers in florida and other well-managed states should pay higher taxes to rescue an albany political class that refuses to restrain its tax and spend governments. mr. scott is the right. "the wall street journal" is right. so is the vik tribune -- the "chicago tribune which called out its own state leaders this week for mismanaging illino
