    Got to run but I will get back to you next week.
    I'll check back for an answer in about a month.....

    And I wouldn't have asked the question if I wasn't expecting to receive an answer.

    I'm not a betting woman. Besides, I wouldn't want to start a competition between the parties involved.......... There might be an off forum pool somewhere.

    Is Universal Healthcare constitutional????

    We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
    If healthcare isn't the general Welfare I don't know what is!

    Your quote is from the Preamble; there is another place in the Constitution where the phrase General Welfare is mentioned.

    Article 1, Section 8 states:
    The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
    I know the meaning of words can change over time. So maybe what they meant back then is different from the way we understand the meaning now
