I’m more concerned about the passage that follows the one you highlighted:
[G]enerally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties: [It]
says what the states can?t do to you, says what the federal government
can?t do to you, but it doesn?t say what the federal government or the
state government must do on your behalf.?
One who believes that government “must” do things “on your behalf,” regardless of the impact on other people’s freedom and property, supports an illiberal collectivism that’s inconsistent with the principles that helped this country thrive and achieve greatness.
