Using a screwdriver as a chisel

A Screwdriver is Only a Screwdriver
It's not a chisel, a pry-bar, or a knife. Use the tool for what it's designed for and it will probably last you the rest of your life.

Have you ever tried to use a flat-head screwdriver as a cold or wood chisel? How did that turn out for you? How often do you think you can use your screwdriver as a cold chisel before you render your screwdriver useless?

For those who clamor for our federal government to become more and more involved in social issues, such as healthcare and wealth redistribution, it would be well to keep in mind, our federal government was never designed for such things; in fact, the designers went to great lengths to prohibit the federal government from doing very much at all and often specifically these things. In general terms, our federal government was designed to provide for a common defense for each of the sovereign states and to be an arbiter for the sovereign states to keep them from quarreling with other. 

Regardless of how or what you believe the moral imperative for social justice to be, you're using the wrong tool; you WILL break it. Can’t you see the strains already? So, when some question the federal government’s involvement in social issues and become frustrated by it, consider that maybe, just maybe, they might not want a prize screwdriver broken. Remember, because some may not want the federal government to do it doesn't mean they don’t want it done at all.
