Is the Selective Service System unconstitutional?

[BoberFett]

Haven't you heard? Nothing government does is unconstitutional; it is all "promoting the general welfare".

It does make one wonder why all those old dudes 200 years ago bothered wasting their time writing that whole document. They could have just stopped there and skipped all the rest of that crap if "general welfare" means that there is nothing outside the scope of the feds.

Hi,

Welcome to AnandTech Forums. I locked the thread because the previous reply was over four years ago.

Our members refer to such posts as "necro" posts, and some of them tend to post replies ranging from sarcastic to hostile, including possible accusations of spamming, whether warranted or not.

You are welcome to continue posting on our forums. Thanks for understanding. We hope you enjoy yourself on our forums.

You're new here so for reference we generally tend to avoid replying to topics that were last discussed over 4 years ago. It's referred to as "necro-ing" a thread and is frowned upon.
