Also please note that I've lived outside the US for a lot of my life, in the UK, South Africa, Holland Hong Kong, and France, and I've found that Europeans are MUCH more trusting of the government running various businesses "on behalf" of the people, as well as controlling much more of what people make, as far as personal income.
Americans are not nearly as trusting of either the Governments ability or motives, to run more than they already do.
I know that I"M not!!
Please note that the constitution is a document that is basically the PEOPLE telling the government what the PEOPLE will allow the government to do, not the government telling the people what THEY can do.
This is ingrained in our culture.
