Medicare fraud. Election fraud. Small Business Administration fraud. \u201cGreen\u201d fraud. And on and on.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/interstatelogisticshubs.com\/?p=5332\">Because Pride Goeth Before the Fall<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Elon Musk originally estimated that his \u201clower bound guess for how much fraud there is nationally is ~20% of the Federal budget, which would mean $1.5 trillion per year. Probably much higher.\u201d That guess is now being proven to be conservative. It gives life to the late Illinois Senator Everett Dirksen\u2019s (possibly apocryphal) comment that \u201cA billion here, a billion there. Pretty soon you\u2019re talking about real money.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Our national debt has just passed $40 trillion. That\u2019s real money.<\/p>\n<p>Every time we catch a fraudster, we take one bad actor off the field&#8230;out of thousands. That\u2019s like fixing one dent on your car that you left out in a hailstorm. Somehow the car still looks like a huge golf ball.<\/p>\n<p>We simply cannot pull a single weed from the field. We must pull them all, but that\u2019s impossible because, as the prophet Jeremiah told us, \u201cThe heart is more deceitful than all else and is desperately sick; Who can understand it?\u201d (Jer 17:9). There will always be more fraudsters. If you don\u2019t read the Bible, just check your phone at dinner time.<\/p>\n<p>The real answer to the dents is to pull your car into the garage before the storm. But we\u2019ve left the government out in a field full of weeds. As long as there are government programs dropping c-notes out of helicopters, there will be evil people out there figuring out how to push others out of the confetti and keep it for themselves. And <em>that\u2019s<\/em> the problem.<\/p>\n<p>Every time someone cries out, Congress decides it must intervene to solve the \u201ccrisis.\u201d And Congress never argues with Rahm Emanuel, who declared that we should \u201cnever let a crisis go to waste.\u201d Of course, no federal program ever fails. It just \u201chasn\u2019t gotten enough money to actually work,\u201d so Congress always increases funding, taxpayers be damned.<\/p>\n<p>The real problem with federal spending is that it is almost all unconstitutional. Congress says that\u2019s not true and relies on <em>U.S. v. Butler<\/em> (1936) and <em>Helvering v. Davis <\/em>(1937). These two Supreme Court decisions declared that the General Welfare Clause (Art. I, \u00a7 8, cl. 1) gives Congress the power to spend on whatever it wants. <em>Helvering<\/em> literally says, \u201cdiscretion belongs to Congress, unless the choice is clearly wrong, a display of arbitrary power, not an exercise of judgment.\u201d In short, Congressional spending is constitutional because Congress spent the money.<\/p>\n<p>Any beginning student of logic can see that this is a circular argument. Justices Owen Roberts and Benjamin Cardozo were not constrained by the meaning of the Constitution. They were political animals, and Roberts\u2019 change of heart in <em>West Coast Hotel Co. v. Parrish<\/em> (1937) is commonly called \u201cthe switch in time that saved nine\u201d because it defused FDR\u2019s push to pack the Court to get his way with the New Deal.<\/p>\n<p>It seems that history doesn\u2019t repeat itself, but it\u2019s pretty clear from current events that it does rhyme.<\/p>\n<p>To understand why the General Welfare Clause does not grant unlimited spending power to Congress, we must get into our time machine. The first likely legal use of the term \u201cgeneral welfare\u201d or similar is in the Articles of Confederation of the United Colonies of New England in 1643. Yup, they did have written language back then.<\/p>\n<p>The Articles were a mutual defense pact between Massachusetts Bay, New Haven, Plymouth, and Connecticut. If Indians attacked, the four colonies were to defend jointly. It was an agreement to defend the colonies, not any specific group of people in them.<\/p>\n<p>The same concept appeared in the Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union in 1777. It clearly had the same meaning as in 1643. Then, when it was copied into the Constitution, the Framers clearly stated that it meant exactly the same thing again. This fits with the Corpus of Founding Era American English (COFEA) data, which shows that there are no examples during the ratification of the Constitution in 1787 where \u201cgeneral welfare\u201d meant anything like our modern concepts of Medicaid, AFDC, and so on. It always meant just what I said it meant.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/interstatelogisticshubs.com\/?p=5329\">Socialism and New York City\u2019s Housing Crisis<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If we examine <em>The Federalist<\/em>, the letters of the Framers, and the ratification debates, we find no support for the idea that \u201cthe general welfare\u201d meant anything other than the well-being of the United States <em>as a polity<\/em>. This is repeated in a table-pounding drumbeat by James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and many other Federalists.<\/p>\n<p>Anti-Federalists feared that the \u201csweeping clause\u201d (Art. I, \u00a7 8, cl. 18), which we now know as the \u201cNecessary and Proper Clause,\u201d might grant Congress \u201csweeping powers.\u201d Federalists repeated that it merely states that Congress has only the power to pass laws to do the things it is permitted to do by the sixteen clauses between the General Welfare and Necessary and Proper clauses. Justice Joseph Story echoes the same theme in his 1833 <em>Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for all the limitations on Congress comes from George III\u2019s track record of \u201crepeated Injuries and Usurpations.\u201d The problem, put simply, was that the King and Parliament declared their absolute power to legislate on whatever they wanted regarding the American colonies.<\/p>\n<p>Colonials had developed a robust understanding that government should work so each level (personal, state, and central) had governing relationships primarily between peers. The Creator gave all rights to individuals. Those individuals then ceded a limited number of powers to the state to solve problems between individuals. The states then ceded power upward to a central government to solve state versus state issues and to handle foreign powers.<\/p>\n<p>The entire parade of horribles in the Declaration of Independence is drawn from the Crown\u2019s violating that structure. Colonists were happy to remain Englishmen as long as Whitehall tended to those things that only a central government could handle. But when a trivial tax was put by Parliament on tea, the cry rose that \u201cTaxation without representation is tyranny!\u201d It wasn\u2019t London\u2019s business to interfere in local issues.<\/p>\n<p>Justices Roberts and Cardozo either did not know this history, ignored it, or lied about it, claiming that the meaning of the General Welfare Clause had been disputed at the Framing. They selectively misquoted Hamilton and Story to create the impression that those luminaries thought that the Clause granted Congress near-plenary powers, when Madison, Hamilton, and Story all agreed that the Clause was a purpose clause, not a grant of power. If the Constitution did not expressly grant powers, those were reserved for the States or the People (Amendment X).<\/p>\n<p>The Constitution prohibits virtually everything in the federal fisc that is presently spent on what we loosely call \u201cwelfare.\u201d Let me put that in basketball terms. It\u2019s time for the Supreme Court to call a flagrant-2 foul on Congress and kick it out of the \u201cwelfare\u201d game. It doesn\u2019t matter whether it\u2019s an SBA loan, job training program, or Green subsidy (all corporate welfare); it\u2019s all off limits. Medicaid is just more welfare that\u2019s off limits.<\/p>\n<p>The list is long and repetitive. And yes, Social Security and Medicare are equally unconstitutional. Their \u201creliance interest\u201d must be tackled, even if they aren\u2019t kosher. We must figure out how <em>not<\/em> to take away what current retirees rely on while preventing Congress from compounding the injury.<\/p>\n<p>Every \u201cwelfare\u201d or subsidy program is a magnet for fraud. And every one of them is properly off-limits for Congress. But simply punishing a fraudster or eliminating an urban renewal program is simply rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. The ship of state is sinking fast under its debt load. Throwing every program that doesn\u2019t closely follow the actual enumerated powers in Article I, \u00a7 8 overboard will right the ship and allow us to sail safely into the future.<\/p>\n<p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5334\" height=\"358\" src=\"https:\/\/interstatelogisticshubs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/a6d850d408eb4239c74724ff008422ad.jpg\" width=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/interstatelogisticshubs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/a6d850d408eb4239c74724ff008422ad.jpg 640w, https:\/\/interstatelogisticshubs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/a6d850d408eb4239c74724ff008422ad-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p><em>Image created using AI.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Ted Noel is a retired physician who posts on social media as Doctor Ted, @Vidzette on X, and occasionally hosts\u00a0Doctor Ted\u2019s Prescription podcast on multiple podcast channels.<\/em><\/strong><\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/interstatelogisticshubs.com\/?p=5326\">The British Nanny State: No Guns Allowed<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every day (if you read real news) we see multiple new cases of documented fraud.
