EDIT: I'm not too sure, but wouldn't social security, medicare, most government agencies etc. be unconstitutional under the original meaning? Not that this would necessarily be bad, just wondering |

Date: July 1st, 2009 12:07 PM Author: pearly mischievous gunner cuckoldry if you want to just live by majority rule, why bother having a constitution at all?
the founders definitely contemplated that the constitution would undergo significant change. I just think they expected the change to be done through open, legal, and democratic means rather than backdoor deals and regulatory creep. |
