Empty Words?

Question:  Does the proposal of Federalist #46, paragraph the third from last, first several sentences, ever “kick in”?  If so, what would be sufficient reason to do so?  Or, are these just empty words?

This is a serious question, especially given our current situation.  I hope people will respond.  To answer the question you will need to use the link above to read figure out just what I refer to here.

I asked one of my sons this question today and he quickly replied, “Those are empty words.”  Perhaps that is the case.  I would like to know what you think, and why.

After, or if, anyone responds I will probably offer some commentary on the matter.
