“The Congress shall have the Power to lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States. . .”
How far can the General Welfare go? We know it can be used to tax and take property from citizens, property being coin.
But can it also be used to take other kinds of property? Lets say in order to promote the general welfare the powers that be decide to take our guns. Many would argue that is a proper use of the GWC.
In reality we do not own anything that is being taxed. You are paying house tax or property tax for living in a home you have a partial title to. If you don't pay your rent (taxes), the government will sell your house.
How far will they go? Well it seems the paupers prison is alive and well. You don't pay your government bills or taxes, you are going to the big house.
