In case you missed it, the US Supreme Court confirmed that if you want federal money, the federal government gets to set the rules. If you don't like the rules, feel free to stop accepting the federal money.

This case is about schools that want to bar military recruiters from their campuses -- the schools want the federal cash, and they certainly want the military to actually protect us, but they just don't want anyone to know about it -- well, some schools want the protection, others would be happier were we to be taken over by Muslims or communists...

What I find really interesting is the amount of control the federal government has in this case. Go ahead, schools, eject the recruiters if you want to, you just don't get federal money. Now, how many schools can afford to do that? That's right, none of them. And that's the bigger problem.

The federal government, by using my tax dollars, is getting to determine way too much. Why does the federal government give my money to someone else so they can go to school? Can someone find me that section of the Constitution? I've looked and looked, but I don't see it there.

This wouldn't be an issue if the federal government would mind it's own business. Then the schools could permit and allow anyone they wanted on their property -- and EVERYONE would enjoy a LOT more freedom.

(H/T Stop the ACLU).
