To: Know your rights
You're a real head case I can see. In GW's time they didn't know the cause of many of the ills that happened to them. I stipulated that if they'd known, they'd had federal regulation of the materials and practices.

In fact, given the opportunity George Washington voted for a constitution that established that the control of standards of measurement was at the federal, not the state, level.

I've always thought that interesting.

And they did know the cause of many others, yet declined to federally regulate them. Your attempt to make the Founders out as big-government types is still a failure.
