The Constitution required the United States to provide MILITARY DEFENSE.
It doesn't require FEDERAL AID MONEY TO THE STATES.
And there is NO "general welfare of the people" in the Constitution, if
you can find that wording then post it here for me please.
Then there is HOARDING CASH as if it were a a static amount... the
amount of CASH rises and falls depending on the economy and the increase
in productivity and money shifted away from depreciating inflation from
the FEDERAL RESERVE.... into assets that appreciate and don't lose
buying power as the "CASH" known as the U.S. dollar does. For instance
Gold doesn't lose 2% on average.... but cash does. When you have a lot
of money and you turn half into gold, How have you hoarded the CASH?
I don't think you understand finance as well as you think you do...
That gold can then be used for other things as well as just a non
depreciating asset, and if it's made into jewelry that might require a
factory and workers and that might grow the economy rather than just "be
hoarding cash" and that person doing all this will be creating new cash
and new wealth by the fact that they are helping the brick and mortar
assets and the economy expand... which means that the Federal Reserve
needs to expand the M2 money supply and increase the available cash
creating more cash for people other than themselves.
Your view of a limited pie that is divided among us is NOT based in
reality, it's simplistic and inaccurate. It barely rates a 6th grade
education level.
