All Government ‘Charity’ is Unconstitutional, Says Author of U.S. Constitution

As only a handful of constitutional conservatives, like Ted Cruz , Mike Lee , Rand Paul , argue for the full repeal of Obamacare, something that was promised by all Republicans for seven years, and as Democrats have no answers for disastrous Obamacare other than more government control what destroyed the health insurance marketplace in America in the first place and caused prices and deductibles to unnecessarily skyrocket we should be reminded that ALL involvement of the federal government in the healthcare business in any form or fashion, or redistribution schemes pushed on taxpayers under the guise of charity, are highly unconstitutional and therefore illegal.
Moreover, the very same legislators in either political party, who raise their right hand, taking an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution, are instantly violating same oath by pushing any involvement in healthcare, whether it be Obamacare, Hillarycare, Trumpcare, or any other do-gooder vote-buying scheme which entails money being taken from the pockets of one taxpayer who earned it and redistributed to someone else who didnt earn it.
But dont take my word for it. Take the words of the U.S. Constitution and the interpretation of those words by the Founding Father who wrote those words so that there is nothing arguable. After all, who better to ask what he meant by his writings than the person who actually wrote them, correct?

From the article...
Madison further imagined where Congress might stretch the General Welfare clause if it were misinterpreted to be open-ended:
“If Congress can apply money indefinitely to the general welfare, and are the sole and supreme judges of the general welfare, they may take the care of religion into their own hands; they may establish teachers in every State, county, and parish, and pay them out of the public Treasury; they may take into their own hands the education of children, establishing in like manner schools throughout the Union; they may undertake the regulation of all roads other than post-roads.”
“In short, everything, from the highest object of State legislation, down to the most minute object of police, would be thrown under the power of Congress; for every object I have mentioned would admit the application of money, and might be called, if Congress pleased, provisions for the general welfare.”

I take your word for it. No matter what Roberts said, anyone with an IQ much above dirt knows it is unconstitutional. For the illiterate Obamobots, that means it needs to be repealed.
STOP THERE, then let the private sector handle it.

For all of the reasons above, with the Democrat Party all but merging with the Communist Party USA and the Republicans, led by big government RINOs Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell, only wanting slightly smaller and just barely less unconstitutional than the Democrats,..

How about they repeal obamacare first, then instead of all these gimme programs they fight over like Medicaid, just build x amount of free clinics and have interns with some experienced doctors Staff them and have people who really cannot afford medical help go to these clinics...
But, there must also be some repayment as in like giving assistance back to the clinics by physical labor (cleaning, stocking, assisting where needed)...like the old barter system...when did we get away from that idea?

The same BS was created in the judiciary when Justice William O Douglas declared the Constitution and Bill of Rights had “Penumbras and Eminations” - meaning, “it has whatever we want to twist it into.”

Davy Crockett explained this very well in the 1830’s.

Madison’s interpretation and approach is basically the way things went until United States v Butler in 1936.

Congress has the power to grant patents on drugs under Article I, Section 8.
Patents make drugs expensive.
If somebody with a pre-existing condition needs an expensive drug, insurance companies dont want to cover that person.
Patents create a need justifying proper federal government action to pay for expensive Article I, Section 8 patented drugs. The Supreme Court allows Congress to decide what is proper under the necessary and proper supplemental power to the enumerated powers.
The need doesnt have to that of the federal government itself, since no adjective precedes need in Article I, Section 8.

This is but one of the pillars of the conspiracy I have alluded to in previous posts that all who participated, promoted and worked under are now participants in a key element of treason and sedition against this country
The rock is rolling downhill faster and faster, and the conspirators are frantically trying to stuff the gene back into the bottle all to no avail
Gonna need a LOT of popcorn soon

Combine the Founders' ideas, as cited in the following essay, with the "Farmer's" understanding, as stated in the Congressman Davy Crockett story for a bit of clarity on the subject of "charitable" "redistribution" of the earnings of one citizen for the benefit of others:
Private Property Rights – A basic Premise Of America’s Constitution
Tired of having the fruits of their labors confiscated by an overpowering British government, America’s Founders declared themselves free and independent.
Most American schoolchildren can recite their claim that “. all men are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights … to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” Less familiar, however, are these lines from their Declaration of Independence:
“He ( King George III ) has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance …. He has combined with others to subject us, … imposing taxes on us without our consent.”
What, then, did the Founders consider to be the real cornerstone of man’s liberty and happiness? On what basic premise did they devise their Constitution? Let them speak for themselves:
“The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the laws of God … anarchy and tyranny commence. PROPERTY MUST BE SECURED OR LIBERTY CANNOT EXIST”-John Adams
“Government is instituted to protect property of every sort …. This being the end of government, that is NOT a just government,… nor is property secure under it, where the property which a man has … is violated by arbitrary seizures of one class of citizens for the service of the rest.”-James Madison
Their guiding principle was that people come together to form governments in order to SECURE their rights to property – not to create an entity which will, itself, “take from the mouths of labor the bread it has earned.” What was wrong for individual citizens to do to one another, they believed, was equally wrong for government to do to them.
The right to own property and to keep the rewards of individual labor opened the floodgates of progress for the benefit of the entire human race. Millions have fled other countries to participate in the Miracle of America.

The writer has stated his facts, which show just how illiterate our congressional critters (and SC Judges) are in regards to understanding our Constitution. Either they deliberately fail to understand, or they attempt to take power from WTP by raising their right hand and lie when taking an oath. They are ALL failures.
SEND congress juvenile delinquents and judges back to school for a refresher course on WHAT our Founding Fathers envisioned and how far they’ve strayed from the path.

I’m so sick of the left using the excuse “living breathing document” meant to be changed. I hear that all the time.

I tell them they are right, it can be changed.
Pass an amendment. If whatever is such a good idea that the feds should have power over it, then give the feds power by passing an amendment. Just like with alcohol.
But, no amendment, no delegated power to the feds.
