The reasoning is simple, if counterintuitive: By enumerating precisely what government cannot do, one installs within the very fabric of the Constitution the dangerous assumption that government is authorized to do everything else.

I couldn't say it so well if my life... well, ok, I could say it that well if my life depended on it, but for anything short of that, forget it.
