Everyone has a 'RIGHT' to steal from others? Huh?
This guy has no clue about the Constitution NOR the intent of the
Federal Government.

The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution
to the federal government are few and defined.
Those which are to remain in the State governments
are numerous and indefinite. The former will be
exercised principally on external objects, as war,
peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with
which last the power of taxation will, for the
most part, be connected. The powers reserved to
the several States will extend to all the objects
which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern
the lives, liberties, and properties of the people,
and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity
of the State. -- James Madison, Federalist Papers
