@MikeNitro94 - Good question. The Founders and most of the country were steeped in Adams Smith book - Wealth of Nations - this would give you the 1787 way to interpret general welfare. In brief, what this sentence would mean is that the government should protect - people and property in order ...

@AboveAllNations - i am glad you are studying the Constitution and Am.Hist.extensively. I have too. I have read the Federalist papers. I am sorry you felt inclined to be derisive about whether I had read them or not. I think your answers to these questions are HIGHLY relevant - 1) where do ri...

@AboveAllNations - Let's clarify your position.
1) where do rights come from?
2) what do you think the purpose of government is?
3) more people have been killed by their governments in the last century than in all the wars of the last century -

You can watch this expanded collection for free. At www.USCivicsTraining.org, would you consider making a secure donation to this cause via paypal. If each person gave $25 donation we would raise ¼ of our funding for 2011. As not everyone will/can give, would you consider a $25, $50, $100, $500, or $1000 gift toward this initiative? We are literally giving "our lives, our fortunes and sacred honor" to this task. Your donation would go toward training over 36,000 people next year. Thanks.

Dear Friends and Subscribers, You can Help Change Our Country. Here's How. The enthusiasm for the Declaration, Constitution and Civics Education videos we have created continues to grow - over 3,000 viewers a month -- all for free. This education is vital for our country. We have many requests for more videos, but funding has not allowed us to take next steps very quickly. Nonetheless, we have worked to put a total of 25 Civics training videos at a new website -- www.USCivicsTraining.org.
