Where does the constitution give federal judges the power to repeal laws?

There is absolutely ZERO chance that the Founders and Framers had the notion of a public dole in mind when they made any reference to "the General welfare."

Liberals try to take advantage of the fact that some words have a degree of ambiguity inherent in them.

Welfare has several meanings. In this day and age, "welfare" has taken on an aura of "the dole." Food stamps. Etc.

But back in the days of the founding of our Republic, "welfare" did not entail "hand outs." It just simply didn't.

Those who say general welfare means social welfare can't find a damn thing to support their claim when it comes to the writing of the founders. However, the same ones use the writings of the founders to back up other claims.
 
You get ridiculous when made to look like the fool you are.

You mean applying your standards to you is 'ridiculous'. As hyperliteralism is your standard. Its not my fault if your standards are ridiculously stupid nonsense.

Show me where the constitution we can find congressional authority to delegate the minting of coins.

You can't. So you ignore your own standards. And demonstate that even you don't buy your hyperliteralism bullshit.

I for one don't want coins minted in the Capitol Building and i don't want congresscritters doing the minting. :lol:

Neither do I. But alas, if we're using the standards of hyperliteralism, there really is no choice. Between votes, congressmen and women can work the minting presses.

Sigh....if only they'd been explicitly granted the authority to delegate the minting of money to say, a US Mint. And the folks that worked there. What were the founders thinking!

If they had explicitly name social welfare programs we wouldn't have people like you twisting the words of the Constitution as usual to make it say what you WANT it to say. Show me in any federalist paper where the founders said general welfare means social welfare.
Yet you refuse to answer..... why would the word, "general," exclude, "social?"

The Judicial Power is explicitly delegated to the Judiciary. So that argument is out.

And ignore.....like you ignore the fact that the constitution makes no mention of 'arrests' or 'incarceration' or 'enforcement'? Like it makes no mention of the authority of congress to delegate its power to mint coins?

Laughing....even you don't buy your bullshit. You can understand why the nation never has.

I've explained multiple times about the executive things you mention.

You mentioned multiple times what you THINK it means. But the constitution makes no mention of arresting anyone. Or incarcerating anyone. Or enforcing any law.

You've interpreted all of those powers as being part of the Executive Power, despite any of them ever being explicitly cited by the Constitution. And in the process, wiped your ass with your own standards of hyperliteralism.

Oh, and I'm still waiting for you to show us where Congress is granted by the Constitution the authority to delegate its power to mint coins.

Laughing...keep running. I enjoy watching you demonstrate that even you don't believe your bullshit.

The Constitution says the executive is to execute the laws. That means enforce you dumbass. Read the definition.

How can they enforce laws.....without the power to arrest or incarcerate anyone? They're not even explicitly delegated the authority to collect *fines*. If you believe this power is explicitly delegated, show me in the constitution.

Perhaps 'explcitly' doesn't mean what you think it means.

Hyperliteralism is a bitch, ain't it?

Enforcing doesn't necessarily mean arrest or incarcerate. There are speed limit signs that people follow. Posting those signs in a method of enforcing a law. If people follow, there is not arrest or incarceration.

And then you paid it in taxes. If you paid your electric bill, you don't still own the money that you paid. It now belongs to the electric company.

I've answered. That you don't like it is your fault. I don't owe anyone anything in the way of social welfare. If they don't have it and you won't give them yours, let them do without.

You've given us your interpretation. But you've ignored the actual meaning of the word. This immediately after offering us a 'its what the word means, dumbass' argument.

Oh, irony.

The definition doesn't include anything about one person being forced to support another. Show me in any of the founder's writings where they said that's what it meant. That's how you argue.
What do you think the Constitution means when it authorizes the Congress to provide for the "general welfare" of the nation?

Equal opportunity not equal results. It was never designed to create a situation where if someone has something and someone else didn't, that the one who did was to have it forcibly taken so it could be handed to the other person. James Madison, the Father of the Constitution, made it clear that the clause authorized Congress to spend money but only to carry out the power/duties specifically enumerated in the Constitution not to meet the infinite wants and needs of everyone. In other words, the "Father" didn't believe general welfare meant one group should be forced to hand over their earnings to another group because the other group didn't have the same things. Thomas Jefferson felt the same way.

Now, YOU show why general includes social. Explain to me why one that took their opportunities and succeeded owes someone that didn't succeed a damn thing in life.
