How about, instead of a Balanced Budget Amendment, the last insult from the Me Generation to their posterity--changing the Constitutional form of Government, lets have a "Return to Enumerated Powers Act" whereby ALL programs not falling within those Enumerated Powers are IMMEDIATELY turned over to the States where they belong, to do with as they will... No bailouts though. Let every knucklehead reap their own reward. (Sapient)
Is social security listed as an enumerated power of Congress? Is Medicare? Is Medicaid? Education? Job training? And so on for thousands of areas in which Congress makes laws and appropriates funds.
No! They are not listed as enumerated powers. Therefore, Congress has no authority to make laws re the same. So the programs are unconstitutional as outside the scope of the legislative powers granted to Congress by the Constitution.
The problem is with The People. They love social security. They love medicare. This is why I call upon the American People to repent of their desire to live at other peoples' expense; and to resume the noble character trait of PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY.
If we were to become again a moral people, we would elect to Congress people who would follow Alexander Hamilton's words in Federalist Paper No. 81 (8th para) and impeach, try, convict and remove from the bench all federal judges who usurp power.
We are in big trouble. But the cause of the problem is with The People. WE became corrupt. WE must repent of our desire to have the government "take care of us"; WE must become mature responsible adults who manage our own lives - and take care of our own families.
It is a shame that the churches have been silent on this Great Moral Issue of Our Time. (Publius Huldah)

Romans 1:28-32...~~~~~
28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them. ~~~~~
Thank you for your cogent comments, Mike!
