"Providing for the general welfare" is the article of the Constitution that this falls under. Providing health care through health care is "providing for the general welfare". It prevents plagues, ensures a stable and healthy workforce, and helps lower healthcare costs overall by ensuring that sick people getting help early when they can be most easily and cheaply helped....
No, but I wouldn’t expect a foreigner to be able to read it correctly. You are reading the introductory clause of the Section, which includes the oft misunderstood “common defense” and “general welfare” wording and failing to comprehend thst the 17 specific items listed below that DEFINE what general welfare and common defense mean, and what their limitations are.
If this were not so, and the Founders meant those two phrases to be as loosely defined as you believe, there would have been no need to list the 17 specific items below.
Please note that none of those 17 items include any reference to health or medicine or medical care for ANYONE.
I'm not confusing ANYTHING. The "general welfare" isn't just the health of the nation, but it's the easiest one to prove. Your opiod addiction problem is a prime example. No checks on the drug companies distributing these drugs, and few on the physicians and pharmacies dispensing them.
Fools like you think that you shouldn't have to participate in helping your fellow citizens in any way, and that it's every man/woman for themselves. Then what is the point of having a nation? A nation is a collection of people with shared values and common goals, who are prepared to WORK TOGETHER to achieve those goals.
Your Constitution starts with the words, "We the people, in order to form a more perfection union". The goal to be united in a purpose. Not even man for himself and screw the rest of you. " . . . in order to form a more perfect union".
Education is another area of "general welfare". An education workforce is a requirement for an industrialized nation to advance. So are roads, communications systems, which the Founders couldn't have envisioned.
