Our welfare clause is General not limited or common. It must be able to cover any given contingency. Right wingers logic is even more circular since they believe the common defense can include the general warfare and the common offense and is not limited to the common defense.The general government of the Union is limited, remember.We know that already.Madison in Federalist 45:
The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected. The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State.
The operations of the federal government will be most extensive and important in times of war and danger; those of the State governments, in times of peace and security. As the former periods will probably bear a small proportion to the latter, the State governments will here enjoy another advantage over the federal government. The more adequate, indeed, the federal powers may be rendered to the national defense, the less frequent will be those scenes of danger which might favor their ascendancy over the governments of the particular States.

Subject only to the police power, the right of the individual citizen to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. (Illinois State Constitution)
You clearly don't comprehend.
But, I've noticed you are in denial whenever J. Madison is brought to your attention.
You just ignore it and continue with your same silly claims.
You and your circular logic.
There is no clause in the Constitution that allows the government to take care of general welfare (as in whatever they see needs addressing.
We are done.

One has to be devoid of morals to get angered at the thought of helping others.
General welfare means making lives better for Americans. What do you think they meant?What did our founders really mean when they said “general welfare”?

False choice."General welfare" is in contrast to "individual welfare". Promoting the "General welfare" means policies that help the whole union- not things that only help particular segments or individuals.
^^ thinks tax cuts for the richThey think freebies
People are healthy, wealthy, and wise, early to bed and early to rise like the man on the US $100 bill.EXACTLY what you think our founders meant when they used the phrase “GENERAL WELFARE” in the constitution?
Who gives a shit what those piece of shit slavers meant.If you voted for Trump there’s a good chance you’re a lot like me with regard to why....I voted for him on two policies almost exclusively...First and foremost on how he would deal with illegal Mexicans and the border and second on how he would yank lowlifes off the Democrat induced welfare plantation.
Anyhoo, as we approach the point where welfare reform will be visited I ask for your opinions on EXACTLY what you think our founders meant when they used the phrase “GENERAL WELFARE” in the constitution?
Attention all Smartest Guys In The Room, and legal scholars:
Please spare us the case citations such as the U.S. vs Butler case and the like. I’m interested in YOUR opinions.
Not all people are affected the same in any legislation"General welfare" is in contrast to "individual welfare". Promoting the "General welfare" means policies that help the whole union- not things that only help particular segments or individuals.
The creep in interpretation of this clause has jumped the shark a while ago. Not sure what the remedy is.
where?^^ thinks tax cuts for the rich
