The Supreme Court recently announced that the people would be hearing about two cases of same sex marriage.This most likely will effect the stand point of the states. Former President Obama even said that same-sex marriage should be the states decisions.  As of now there are 17 states that recognize same-sex marriage and 33 states that have a ban against it. This goes with federalism because the president was giving all states the ability to choose whether or not they would allow same-sex marriage.

The main point of this article is that no matter what majority says, they cannot deprive a minority of that right. “...no majority, no matter how sizable or vocal, may deny constitutionally guaranteed rights to a minority.” This means that if it is considered constitutional by the government, then they have the right to retain that right.

The main point of this article is that President Obama was “working around the law-making branch of government because it refused to do what he desired”. That is un-heard of. He just wants power because he knows that if the Congress is “failing to act” then he is able to make up laws by himself. That is most definitely not HIS job, and he just wants that power. That is why Seperation of Powers is a thing. It is in place in order to prevent incidents of too much power towards one political position happening.

"federal agencies issued nearly 16 regulations for every law passed by Congress, costing businesses an estimated $1.88 trillion in lost economic activity."
"The courts should adhere to the natural reading of the law and require government agencies to do the same. In 2013, in City of Arlington v. FCC, the Supreme Court cautioned that "judges ought to refrain from substituting their own interstitial lawmaking"
"When agencies choose to expand laws written by Congress to pursue their own agenda, knowing that the courts will likely not check their power, judicial deference becomes little more than a blank check for agencies to exercise legislative and judicial authority. Such deference diminishes "We the People" to "They the Regulators."

# data[].attributes.body
The U.S. Constitution restricts the power of the majority because an unchecked majority can be just as threatening to liberty and justice as a dictator or tyrannical oligarchy. Democrats enjoy a majority in the Senate and control of the White House, the Republicans are the minority, controlling only of the House of Representatives.From the beginning of our nation's history, this principle was fundamental.Regardless of where we stand on the political spectrum, we have all benefitted from this delicate constitutional balancing act: both the majority's right to rule and the minority's right to protect itself against majority tyranny.

Gov. Brown exceeds his authority on greenhouse gas limits

Given we Brown wanted to limit greenhouse gas production by enforcing a new law HE CAME up with in California. However to write new law is something only a legislative could do and Brown was no legislative. Diane F. Boyer-Vine Said that regardless of intentions it was against the law and violated limited government. Limited govt limited each branches power so no one branch overpowers another. Legislative writes laws and execuatove enforced laws they don’t write them. Therefore this does violate limited govt and Brown cannot enforce the climate control law in his state.

The article is mainly about how our America’s system is designed around the principle that minority rules, minority rights. This means that the majority elected representatives to legislate on their behalf and carry out the will of the majority. No majority can deny constitutionally guaranteed rights to a minority. For example, even if people don’t like a certain religion or the things to do, it doesn’t change the fact that the First Amendment allows freedom of religion.
