Where in the Constitution does it say you have a right to cheap gasoline?

Since when does the government care about the Constitution? They have been slowly taking away your freedoms and liberties for several years in the name of Homeland Security. Why not bring you to your knees with excessive oil prices? Exxon made ten BILLION in profits in one quarter last year. Constitutional right or not, something must be done.

I can tell you about Ohio, but not much else.  In Ohio it is a measure to put a minimum wage into the constitution.  To me that type of thing does not belong in the constitution but rather a measure done by the legislature than can be readily changed by them as necessary.

I don't really understand the question.  As a citizen you have the rights of legal and political nature as guaranteed by the Constitution.

Yes, it is.  The Constitution gives the states the right to draw up there congressional districts.  The Democrats have used this tactic along with the Republicans

Well first basic right you get is to move your butt out of the house of parents. While you are there you have NO rights what so ever. You dont even have a right to buy cigarettes till your parents allow you.

I've checked the Constitution and sure enough, there it is:\n\nArticle XIVXI: people have the right to smoke.\n\nAnyway, I know what you mean so we'll go from there.  I frequently don't let people smoke during my contact with them for a few reasons.  \n\nYou've probably got to reach inside a pocket, jacket, coat or something to get your smokes.  I don't want you doing that, even if I've already searched you.\n\nThen you're going to either use a match (and throw it on the ground) or a lighter.  Lighters come in all kinds of different shapes and sizes, and not all of them are lighters.  And again, you're probably going to have to reach into a pocket to get whatever you're going to use.\n\nA lit cigarette can be used as a weapon.  Poke someone in the eye with one, and see how they feel.\n\nI generally tell people not to smoke when I have contact with them and explain that they're not going to die in the ten minutes or so I need them not to...if you think about it, it's actually going to prolong your life just a little by waiting for that cigarette.\n\nBottom line is A) you don't have a "right" to smoke, though certainly it isn't against the law and B) I can make a good case for not allowing someone to smoke around me during a contact like this, so people who refuse are likely to find themselves in jail.  Nobody has yet.\n\nFunny that you're interested in not being allowed to smoke rather than being stopped and searched.

This right is protected by the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution. \n\n"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
