re: #92 Mosh

It doesn’t. It’s pointing out that Madison is in no way the final authority on the constitution, and citing him as though he is is dishonest. The constitution was something agreed upon by delegates, democratically; it belongs to all who signed it.

The founding fathers held different opinions on many subjects, including general welfare. None of them overrule each other. The constitution is what it is, and the Supreme Court has held the general welfare and commerce clauses to be sufficient for many things for many, many years. That you are attempting to make an argument for a sudden return to solely enumerated powers in the constitution— especially while arguing so heavily against states’ rights— is pretty absurd to me.

Feel free to answer any of the other outstanding questions that you haven’t, as well.
