"...provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare..."

Provide and promote are two very different things.

I can provide for my children - out of my pocket by paying for food, shelter, clothing - but only promote their general welfare by providing the means for them to do their homework but not by DOING their homework for them.

I hate the Left.

Another excellent article. I'm inclined to comment that people currently don't realize how much better the "general welfare" would be if government wasn't so bloated and individual people had more earnings (less taxation) and thus would be able to take care of themselves, their neighbors and their family.
