Everything the federal government does that helps people, from helping to put police officers on the street to financing Medicare, is at risk in this revolution.

Stupid question, but someone's gotta ask:

"Where in the Constitution is the Federal Government authorized to do any of this?"

Don't you know...the idea of 'Constructive Powers'...a concept where we and/or the states retain everything no expressly given to the central gov't has now be reversed. We now get our rights from what the gov't says or allows. Personally, I think the Consitution is dying at an ever increasing rate. JMHO. The founders wouldn't reconginze it's workings today. They'd see the structure, but be shocked..and dismayed at its workings
