"forced to abide by the will of the people"

Totally misunderstands our founding fathers. They trusted neither the elite, nor the mob. Power corrupts in the hands of the mob, just as much as in the hands of the elite.

Out system of government is not intended to implement the activist agenda of anyone. It was to be small government where people had personal responsibility for their situation.

That is why a BIG GOVERNMENT response to (illegal) immigration is not conservative of conserving the constitution. No. A BIG GOVERNMENT response is a usurpation of my tax money by the mob. Of course, illegals receiving welfare is also a usurpation of my tax money.

Transferring my tax money from one Big government program to a different big government program is not conservative either.
