The Constitution of the US says that the Government was to provide for the Common Defense and promote the General Welfare. There is a difference between promote and provide. Provide implies giving resources, while promoting is more like cheerleading. I will provide you a home or I will promote you getting a home by talking to the banks, does not mean the same thing. Provide means give someone something for nothing, while promote means I will help you, but you need to participate in your own need.
The main problem is the Federal Government was never told to provide for the General Welfare. This has compounded all the social problems. They now pay people to stay home and drink. If you promote sobriety, that would require the person participate in their own liberation. You provide money for beer they stay home and drink. The underlying problem is the DNC has learedn how to use tax payer money to buy votes and leverage dependency at election time; fear mongering, to assure these votes. More people on the dole will vote Democrat than Republican. The exception are the Elderly who will vote Republican since SS was a way to promote people to save for retirement. Democrats now rip off that fund to provide for illegal immigrants with the hope of leveraging future voters.
Every tax dollar that is given to the Federal Government shrinks by -22.5 %, due to the interest on the huge natural debt, and now also due to the higher interest rates caused by government over spending and printing money causing persistent inflation. All interests rate went up. This has stalled the economy. Most of this over spending is connected to providing for the general welfare and not just promoting good ideas. Bad ideas assure dependency votes and the growth of Government.
If all that tax money had stayed in the private sector, where it can be spent and invested, it will result a large positive rate of return for each dollar and add to the GNP. This means innovation and jobs and less need for welfare programs. The Big Government Democrats by borrowing and overspending cause the economy to shrink, with more people out of the work force on the dole.
The inactive work force in America, defined as all people over 16 years old is 100 million with 50 million retired. We have 169 million people who work. Say we added the 50 million not working (minus the retired) to the unemployment rate, instead 4% using trick math, we will get 21% unemployment, which is coincidentally the waste percent of our tax dollars.
We need to move all the social services back to the states and get rid of the ability of the Fed to privide for the General Welfare. Let the states provide for their own citizens. The duty of the Fed would be to promote good ideas and help the states, but not lord over them with money. The tax payers will get to keep that extra money. They can vote how much they will give, and how much the effort the perpetual unemployed, need to give. We can meet half way. I am not their slave so they need to be willing to help themselves. The other half goes to saving and the economy to help it grow and make new jobs, so the snowball of prosperity can reach all.
Making the rich oil fields of Alaska available is a way to promote the general welfare and will cost nothing but paper and ink. With energy prices lower all other prices and cost come down. This will also promote the general welfare and costs the tax payer zip. We can even place a small levy on the oil extract to pay down the debt. With Government smaller we can have balance budget; promotes the general welfare.
