The General Welfare clause could also be used to get rid of the crooks in Washington.....like Rangle and his buddies.

"Treason doth never prosper. What's the reason? Why if it prosper, none dare call it treason."

~~Sir John Harrington, 1607

There is nothing new under the sun. We are far from the first group of soon-to-be peasants to wonder about their overlords' growth and abuse of power.

General welfare clause as cause for general warfare?

Not out of the question, I’m afraid.
