Can’t wait for your post on areas other than regulation.

My basic question for most liberals is: When did it become the federal government’s job to care for the people? Why can’t people take care of themselves?

I don’t usually get a straight answer as they try to defend the indefensible.

They are using the term “general welfare” to cover the gamut.

That is why welfare is called “Welfare”.

If you want to know how the left is so ignorant of such a clause, understand it’s origin.
