Anything can be, if the people so decide. That was the intent of the framers. They did lots of homework on republics and governments in general. Government has always had social welfare programs. They just look different as society changes. There is nothing vague about the idea of the people deciding through the legislature or government just what the General Welfare is at any given moment in the course of a nation's history..[/QUOTE]

The people can vote to dissolve the United States, if they wish. But the words "promote" and "provide" for the general welfare do not mean the government is required to give out money to people who would rather lay on their asses. That may be the Democrat's interpretation... but it was not the intent of the framers.
