On Limited Government
Our constitution is in taters. We continue move away from the core principle of liberty, granted by God not man. I offer the observations of Thomas Jefferson:
"If Congress can do whatever in their discretion can be done by money, and will promote the General Welfare, the Government is no longer a limited one, possessing enumerated powers, but an indefinite one, subject to particular exceptions.
..."Congress has not unlimited powers to provide for the general welfare, but only those specifically enumerated."
-- Thomas Jefferson
