That's not what the Constitution says. Original funding was for two years. Congress isn't supposed to find the military any longer than two years. Then it has to be funded again. It wasn't a prohibition on an army after two years.You read where we are not to have a standing army for longer then two years? So it is not "American from the start" by your criteria, correct?
We are getting into a completely different subject. Maybe start a different thread.
There still is no support for socialism in the Constitution or by the founders .
