The Nullification theroy will soon tear this new nation apart. The nullifacition theory gives an individual state the right to nullify a law. I can't belive that the two people that got this nation in such in uproar about nullification is Thomas Jefferson and James Madison when they declared that states had the right to nullify laws. Matters have only gotten worse since the government has impossed higher taxes on exported goods and passed the protective tariff which is now causing the south to lose money, and some southerners are just not paying. Yes the nullification could be a good thing but it can also cause problems. The nullification theory would make it harder to catch criminals because they could break the law in on state and then run to a state that does no recognize that law. The tension in this nation is growing and I fear the worst. Only time will tell if our nation can come together and be one.
