Default Congress still denying health care

The hell it doesn't. It's in the Preamble, right after "provide for the
common defence". It's "promote the general Welfare".

Steve and others think that phrase means "...promote the general welfare
of the rich at the expense of the middle and lower income classes..."

Steve can read, unlike most "Amerikkkans." . promote the general welfare
means letting you do what it right for you as long as it doesn't screw with
others. It doesn't mean PROVIDE welfare for those to stupid or lazy to
provide for themselves.

Sorry, Steve-o, but your interpretation of that clause is entirely
wrong. You're just "to" stupid.

It's not a "clause," (hahahahaha....idiot) article or amendment. It's in the
introduction, formally known as the preamble. It carries no weight
whatsoever, even IF you were coherent.

Promote does not mean provide.

PROMOTE:
1. To contribute to the growth, enlargement, or prosperity of (any
process or thing that is in course); to forward; to further; to
encourage; to advance; to excite; as, to promote learning; to promote
disorder; to promote a business venture. "Born to promote all truth."
--Milton. [1913 Webster]


PROVIDE.
1. To look out for in advance; to procure beforehand; to get, collect,
or make ready for future use; to prepare. "Provide us all things
necessary." --Shak. [1913 Webster]

2. To supply; to afford; to contribute. [1913 Webster]

Bring me berries, or such cooling fruit As the kind, hospitable woods
provide. --Milton. [1913 Webster]

3. To furnish; to supply; -- formerly followed by of, now by with. "And
yet provided him of but one." --Jer. Taylor. "Rome . . . was well
provided with corn." --Arbuthnot. [1913 Webster]

4. To establish as a previous condition; to stipulate; as, the contract
provides that the work be well done. [1913 Webster]
