"'Seeking tighter controls over firearm purchases, the Obama administration is pushing to ban Social Security beneficiaries from owning guns if they lack the mental capacity to manage their own affairs, a move that could affect millions whose monthly disability payments are handled by others,' The Los Angeles Times reported Saturday. 'There is no simple way to identify that group, but a strategy used by the Department of Veterans Affairs since the creation of the background check system is reporting anyone who has been declared incompetent to manage pension or disability payments and assigned a fiduciary.'" ... |

The 'crucial point' of this latest edict, like other before it, is it grants bureaucrats supremacy over constitutionally-enshrined "citizens' rights". Where does this precedent stop ? How long before some President ( or Congress) decide our bureaucracy can curtail/revoke individuals' first amendment rights ? Or their fifth ? All based upon their participation in an entitlement program based upon their age, or physical condition ?
Lots of retireds find assigning some fiduciary authority to trusted family to maintain a residence or other recurring obligations while they devote themselves to travel a convenience. Doubtless some bureaucrats would deem this a 'qualifying condition' under this new pogrom. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
