Emily Oneill interviews Tom Woods (via The Tenth Amendment Center):
The 17th Amendment removed the enforcement mechanism of the 10th Amendment. The best way to restore the 10th Amendment is to repeal the 17th.
This web-log calls for the repeal of the 17th Amendment and addresses the hegemony committed by the US Senate. The first significant step to remove the domination and unmistakable corruption deriving from the National Government and the restoration of the Federal is to repeal the 17th Amendment. Americans should fear the steady hegemonic growth by the Senate oligarchy because the US Constitution cannot be spoiled by bombs, the courts, or the President, but only through malevolent legislation.

But at this point in time, it's worth reminding those who favor centralized power that there are limits to what they can do.

Judge Napolitano: The Role of States
Part 5 of "The Constitution and Freedom":
As Judge Napolitano notes, the senate as originally designed was the structural protection of the Tenth Amendment and the safeguard of federalism. When the Senate's role was altered by the 17th Amendment, it stopped protecting people from the destructive and corruptive centralization of power that has created the federal leviathan that threatens us today.
