I'm not saying you should be "okay" with that, only that such taxation and expenditures are perfectly Constitutional. ObamaCare is Constitutional and the Republicans' AHCA proposal, if enacted into law, would also be Constitutional. And, finally, a single payer system would also be Constitutional (and that's in fact exactly what Medicare and Medcaid are). All Constitutional, of course, subject to the satisfaction of due process, equal protection and other Constitutional constraints on the state.
Time to shred this insidious and bastardized perverted statement about taxation.
Taxation as intended by the Framers was to provide for the absolute necessary operation of a minimalist government. Roads, bridges, defense and the promotion of general welfare of the states, not to provide welfare generally as these arguments made by you continually illustrate. Taxes were to be levied for the purpose of maintaining a functioning government and for defense, and that is all.
It was not intended to provide for the absolute desires and needs of constituents a representative is beholden to .
What you are arguing is using the Constitution to justify voting largesse from the national treasury to appeal and appease constituencies with sustenance and provision by the hand of producers into the hands of those who demand a hand-out and who see government as their god - and nothing more.
Anyone advocating using the government to create 'level playing fields' and 'fairness' is a tyrant and enemy of the Constitution. Period.
National Government exists to dispense justice, uphold the law and carry out the Constitutional duties proscribed. It was not intended to create fairness, mandate equality, redistribute wealth, and distribute charity as it sees fit upon those it arbitrarily decides are in need.
If you're not okay with that, then you need to elect representatives that reflect your views, and defeat those who oppose those views.
When we do, and attempts are made to end the welfare state and government imposed 'fairness' - we get to read and hear Communist nimrods arguing in favor of Statism and fomenting revolution and violence while attempting to morally shame those who support returning the government to it's Constitutional limits.
