None that you would get or understand, apparently. But for starters, the
Constitution that the right wing holds dearly, was founded in part
because the federal government wanted more control and taxation from the

The constitution is neither a right wing or a left wing document. It
is the best considered compromise from a group of really smart guys,
hammered out in an attempt to strike the right balance between federal
control and state control, and individual liberties vs law and order.
The fact that it still survives more or less intact today is a
testament to the wisdom and thought that went into the original
effort. Attempts to put a modern day political spin on the
constitution are a corruption of the ideals that it is based on.
