So why did we form a US with limited powers. If Cali wants a carbon tax, good for them.

Retirement is a relatively new concept that did not exist in the 1700s outside of a select few. That's not to say that SS is solving all our woes, but to pretend that Americans retired comfortably before the advent of SS is just patently false.SFGbob said:
We formed a government in order to take care of the things individuals can't provide for themselves. National defense, courts, not provide healthcare and retirement funds. They had health care and people retired when the Constitution was written.

As for healthcare, it's become pretty clear that the free market is unable to provide sufficient care to a large segment of the population, be it due to poverty or preexisting conditions. If you're okay with that then go make that argument, but I think most people recognize that the government must play some role to correct the deficiencies of the market. -
Seems like the GOP is all in on most government programs so that meme appears to be full of shit
Democrat socialists want socialism. Why are you lying about it @Gwad ? -

Can we please lay off the strawman's asswhole for just one day? I never claimed that people retired comfortably back in the 1700s. But people did get old, they did get sick and they did die. The very same certainties of life that exist today, existed back then and the Founders didn't believe that the Federal government had any role in ameliorating those certainties.GreenRiverGatorz said:

Our current healthcare system is about as far as you can get from a free market so it's not really fair to say it isn't able to provide sufficient care to a large segment of the population.
