The Constitution says government must provide for our “general welfare.“

What does that mean? make sure citizens are well and cared for give citizens free money and food restrict the rights of citizens provide places for everyone to live

The phrase "general welfare" in the Constitution refers to the government's responsibility to promote the well-being and happiness of all citizens, including access to basic necessities and public services such as education, public health, and infrastructure. It does not mean giving citizens free money and food, restricting their rights, or providing housing for everyone. Rather, it means creating policies and programs that benefit the overall welfare of society and ensuring that all citizens have equal access to opportunity and resources.
