90% of What the Federal Government does is unconstitutional, if not more. If people actually read the Constitution and understood it, people would be angry enough to do something about it.

I don't know about the validity of that percentage, but anyone that doesn't work for the Federal Government and legally doesn't pay income taxes can attest to fact that a lot of the Fed's actions are questionable as far as legality. Little is done because as an American, it is each individual's legal responsibility to keep themselves informed. The the justice system assumes you're informed, and if you don't raise a voice to what they are doing, then they will most likely do it. The trick is that its incredibly difficult to stay "informed" and active while living an average working-class lifestyle. In the end people either don't know or they just don't care.

The purpose of the Federal Government is outlined in the Constitution. It clearly was never meant to be the all encompassing tyrant that it is today. How is the average joe supposed to "stay informed" when even the house of representatives aren't allowed to read 2,000 page laws until after they are passed?

I see you understand my point. Ever look at the length of the Tax Code?
