Lets focus on a governmental program intended to provide subsidized housing for economically needy people. The idea is to help only those who need help, so a line will have to be drawn somewhere to decide who gets housing benefits and who does not get housing benefits.
M (Ends or purpose of the law)--To help house needy citizens afford habitable housing
T(Means: the classification made by the law)--To draw a line based upon income (people on one side of the line get benefits, people on the other side of the line do not get benefits)
The web log for Prof. Duncan's Constitutional Law Classes at Nebraska Law-- "[U]nder our Constitution there can be no such thing as either a creditor or a debtor race. That concept is alien to the Constitution's focus upon the individual. In the eyes of government, we are just one race here. It is American. " -----Justice Antonin Scalia If you allow the government to take your liberty during times of crisis, it will create a crisis whenever it wishes to take your liberty.
