Re: Wringing-the-Neck of Empty Ritual.

My New Constitution is probably 50 times more explicit about the
proper scope of government.  It most definitely limits what government
is empowered to do!  I invite you to elucidate why you suppose my even
more limited government than the Founding Fathers spelled out is in
any wise a bad idea. 


Probably, but unlikely if the 'snippets' are an indicator.
The proper scope of government is to secure (natural) rights <period>. How much more 'explicit' is necessary?

It is to secure our rights that we resort to government at all. -- Thomas Jefferson to Francois D'Ivernois, 1795.
