Interestingly, the U.S. Constitution is specifically set up to forbid the Fed govt from doing any more than running Defense, foreign relations, prosecuting certain defined crimes, and the rest of the (very limited) list it contains, mostly in Article 1 Section 8. They even wrote in a section misleadingly called the "Welfare Clause", that should more problerly be called the "Uniformity Clause", that forbids the govt from spending money on anything but Defense and a few other specified programs, plus any programs that help all Americans equally. In other words, spending on special interests, is forbidden.That amount to maybe 25% of what the Fed govt is actually doing today... a proportion that's decreasing fast.
