Re: Thats Cool! »www.usconstitution.net/const.html
I have read the entire US Constitution, and I cannot find a single passage in it authorizing the federal government to do this. The only thing that applies to this is an implicit ban against it in the 10th ammendment, which would make this a gross misappropriation of funds and an indication of massive corruption in the federal government. I am not surprised. The Democratic party started this back in 1932 with FDR and it continues to this day. The Department of Agriculture was established under FDR. It was intended to supply the US troops in Europe with food, a time during which it was Constitutional because it coordinated logistics for the military. After the war, it was no longer necessary, yet it stayed in the federal government, taking on roles other than logistics for the military and therefore becoming Unconstitutional. It should be dismantled, and if anyone wants to take a stab at President Bush, his failure to dismantle the Department of Agriculture is one of the best ways to do it. Grilling him over his failure to dismantle The Department of Education (school subsides like NCLB, loans, paying property taxes to local and state governments on property taken by eminent domain, etcetera; all in violation of the 10th ammendment and therefore unconstitutional), Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid are other ways to take a stab at him. |

| But its ok to take money and blow the head off some infants in Iraq right? Or how about using our tax money to support Israel or free health and schooling care for 15,000,000 illegal aliens. Or even better yet, take the army out of Afghanistan where UBL and the Taliban are and send them to Iraq where noting is but oil and at the same time keep yelling 9/11 every chance you get.
I think is much better to fund public works projects in out home land. -- DEATH TO 'ZOG' |
