[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"I don’t think our founding fathers when they were putting the term “general welfare” in there were thinking about a federally operated program of pensions nor a federally operated program of health care. [b]What they clearly said was that those were issues that the states need to address.[/b] " They said nothing of the kind. As you keep saying, they never mentioned health care or pensions. John Adams, the second president, instituted a national health care scheme for merchant marines paid for by mandates on the captains of the ships. During the Revolution there was a pension set up for the soldiers paid for by the government. "the states could substantially better operate those programs IF (emphasis added) that’s what those states decided to do. " [/quote] And where did they say that? [/quote]
