Give me my welfare!

"The Congress shall have the power to lay and collect taxes, duties, impost, and excised, to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States...." (Article 1, Section 8 of the United States Constitution.)

"Perhaps 90 percent of what the federal government does is actually unconstitutional-and it's all due to an expansion of government power under the guise of the 'general welfare."
-Brion McClanahan, Ph.D., "The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Founding Fathers" (pg. 77).

This section of the Constitution does not give the federal government the right to expand the welfare state in America. The government was not established to provide for us our daily bread, nor was it created to squander our tax dollars. Government welfare programs create more problems than they solve.

What is government's role?

What is their responsibility to the poor?
