The way states enumerate powers is through a Constitutional amendment. I see no amendment to the Constitution that lets the federal government pillage taxes to be spent on education, welfare, abortion, or farming. Hence, these federal agencies are unconstitutional. If you still don't get it, you have to wait until Bush's educational program comes to your town.

Sure it does. Look at the 16th amendment, the 14th amendment and the Supremacy clause. The 14th amendment made all state constitutions subornate to the Fed. A bad idea but still constitutional. The 16th amendment made possible the funding of the Federal government through income taxes with NO restriction on how that money is spent. Not a good thing but still constitutional. The Farm Bill is actually a commodities bill and it is used to cushion upstream commodities markets against crop losses. Not a good idea but fully within the constitutional powers of the federal government.

I am sorry, I missed this one in the Constitution.

The Farm Bill is actually a commodities bill and it is used to cushion upstream commodities markets against crop losses. Not a good idea but fully within the constitutional powers of the federal government.

Also, the 14th amendment does no such things. It simply guarantees that the Bill of Rights apply to everyone. Honestly, if you believe that farm bills, and other such nonsense is actually in the Constitution, you will be agreeing with Souter-Breyer-Ginsburg, and not with Scalia-Thomas-Rehnquist.
