I have to prove that the Founding Fathers didn't want the government to do something? That's not how they wrote. They specifically laid out those things that the government should do. If it's not there, then it can't be done.
Technically, it laid out what the federal government should do and if it's not there it is left to the individual States to decide unless expressly prohibited.
Only an amendment would really grant federal authority over an unmentioned situation.
