It is constitutional, but the tax power comes from other Articles and amendments of the constitution, not the preamble.Not definitions but examples:
The US government provides for the common defense by directly maintaining a military.
The US government promotes the general welfare by sending money to states to distribute for school lunches, special education, etc.
The preamble not mentioning taking from the rich to give to the poor is immaterial. That comes from our tax structure, which is constitutional.
Keep up dumb dumb. We want to TRANSFER wealth, not DESTROY it. There's greater economic growth when the poor and middle class have money to spend than when it stays with the rich.
When have I been against the middle class? I'm all for taxing millionaires and billionaires more; but that's not the middle class.
If Vance were a Democrat, the media would swoon over he and Usha like the were the return of Camelot.Trump has the prettiest wife in the history of US presidents....but Vances wife is every bit as beautiful if not more. Shes extremely intelligent also and accomplished in her own right. Far cry from "dr." Jill Biden, whose lifelong accomplishments include cheating on her 1st husband with Joe...and raising a crackhead loser.
Who were they?Where are all the Musk-slurping fakeass free speech warriors today?
