The U.S. Congress follows the order of the Constitution. However, the U.S. Congress oversteps delegated by the Constitution the limited Power to “promote the Progress of Science” and assumed the Power of appropriations for promoting Science financially.
In contrast, the U.S. Congress never appropriated promoting ideologically charged “useful Arts” financially, and specifically "useful" Performing Arts, since the time of abandoning fifers and drummers on battlefields.
(Read more...)To be fair, the Government supports all sorts of arts. However, all Government’s grants with practically no exception awarded to individuals, who actually abandoned “useful Arts”, as Ideological Instruments of the Nation. Many of those modern writers, actors, artists openly confront “useful Arts” as “corny”, “old hat“, and even “politically incorrect“.
No wonder, that the main Government Agency sponsoring arts in the United States is called the
National Endowment for the Arts, and not for “useful Arts”, as the Constitution directs.
While the U.S. Congress broadens the Word of the Constitution by de facto promoting Science financially, the U.S. Congress relinquishes the responsibility to equally and proportionally promote “useful Arts”. All that resulted in flourishing of Science in the United States, and total vanishing of “useful Arts”.
Consequently, at a time of the ideologically charged total terrorist warfare, when “useful Arts” are indispensable for Ideological superiority of the Nation in battle and sustaining the Will of the Nation to resist Terror, they are not available even as basic Ideological Instruments. It is imperative that “useful Arts” ought to be resurrected, and the Progress of “useful Arts” must be promoted equally and proportionally to Science at a time of the War on Terror.
But who does get the Power to “Promote the Progress of ... useful Arts”, while the U.S. Congress gave up that Power, and de facto literally starved “useful Arts“ to death?
“The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, not prohibited to it by the States are reserved to the States respectively...” (The Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States) So, do the States get Power to “Promote the Progress of ... useful Arts”?
.
Nothing of the kind! No States have a provision for promotion of “useful Arts” in States Constitutions. Therefore, States have no Constitutional Power to “Promote the Progress of ... useful Arts” either. So, who does get the Power to
“Promote the Progress of ... useful Arts”, after all?
Let‘s read the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States once again:
“The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, not prohibited to it by the States are reserved to the States respectively, or to THE PEOPLE”. According to the Supreme Law of the Land the Power to
“Promote the Progress of ... useful Arts” in a broad sense belongs to "the people". To you, myself, all of us.
There is no one else, but “the people” got the Power to bring “useful Arts” being vital in ideologically charged battle with Terror back to life. This Power is Ideological Power of the Constitution of the United States, and it is real.
It is the Ideological Power to strengthen the Will of the Nation in battle against all enemies, foreign and domestic. It is the Power to promote the Progress of “useful Arts“ serving as Ideological Instruments in “decisive ideological struggle of the 21st century“.
The Ideological Power is delegated to the people by the Constitution, and cannot be denied! However, there is no Power without Knowledge. And there is no Knowledge without Education.
(Read more...) That is why it is the Constitutional Responsibility of the people of the United States to get useful knowledge of “useful Arts”, first, and then “faithfully execute” the Ideological Power “delegated to “the people” by the Supreme Law of the Land.
