We The People are sovereign over our own lives; government is the servant, not the master.
The US Constitution does not give us rights; it protects those unalienable rights given to us by God. The Federal Government is not the "boss" of the states or the people. The US Constitution is the instruction manual that the Federal Government must follow, and it was dictated by We The People and the several states.
Ron DeSantis and Adam Laxalt have written an excellent article on why Obamacare is unconstitutional. It is chock full of quotes from the founders talking about how the federal powers are few and defined, not indefinite. They succinctly lay out their case using the words of the founders...
As Madison famously explained in The Federalist No. 45, the "powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined."Such ideas embodied in our constitution are anathema to progressives and subversive to their cause.
As a congressman, Madison warned against constructions of the Constitution that rendered the government "no longer a limited one, possessing enumerated powers, but an indefinite one, subject to particular exceptions."
If inactivity can be characterized as commercial activity, then virtually anything is ripe for federal supervision, converting the Constitution into an "unlimited government," which is precisely what the Founding Fathers tried to prevent. (American Spectator)
