And what about establishing justice and promoting the general welfare? These are included in the same paragraph as was providing for the common defense. You can't cherry pick the Constitution simply because you don't agree with some of the more progressive concepts expounded therein.

Keystone> The purpose of government is to improve the living condition of its people.


Don't think so.
The first purpose of government is to provide for
the common defense. (To protect the people grouping
together from the predations of other peoples.)

Charity begins at home.

The local community should be looking out for their
'disadvantaged'. Helping their needy etc. etc.

What we have today . . . is the socialists in these
States' stealing moneys from the folks in other
States' to 'provide' for folks who - all too often -
should be forced to work by their local communities.
