I would agree with your suggestion EXCEPT for one real, ugly possibility:

With lawless Fat Rats running government, what begins as "temporary" or "a relaxation" or "applicable only for illegals", often turns into the start down a slippery slope. Thus, "temporary" becomes *permanent*; "a relaxation" widens in scope; "applicable only to illegals" spreads to all Americans.

One example is when Nixon in 1971 took the dollar off the gold standard. That was supposed to be "temporary". It remains in force to this day (54 years and counting) -- which is how the Central Bank Cabal has raped and pillaged the US to the point we are in today ($$$tens of trillions in debt).

So be careful. The idea is good, but in the hands of filthy criminals it can go South very fast.

You are so right in your hesitation. They've put things into place so many times persuading us it's for our benefit, to solve a problem and for only a short time. SUUUURE!

I agree with you. Authorizing the military to act within our borders is a dangerous and slippery slope to basically martial law. The only way I would be comfortable with it being used is if there was a threat at our borders or a large organized group of foreign nationals acting within our country. Then again, It should be deployed only in that particular area and not Nationwide - and never, ever against our own people. We have the police for that, which have now pretty much militarized themselves with military grade equipment. 🙄

Yes. Common sense, balance, being specific about interventions, very specific.
