U.S. Senate Leader Calls For Israeli Prime Minister To Resign
None of them that aren't mentioned in the Constitution require federal oversight
Yes, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be, not to mention that the implied powers, though abused a lot, grant the government the ability to take steps to allow them to make their current duties fulfilled, sometimes affording new ones for the sake of efficiency and security, because states either can’t handle it themselves, or would attack one another using those powers.
There are no "implied powers." Show me anything in the Constitution you think "implies" additional powers and I'll prove you wrong.
@9CJ6CB61mo1MO
Implied powers come from the Elastic Clause, which, by technicality, allows these implied powers to exist, and regardless, they’re extremely necessary for making sure the power of corporations and runaway market forces don’t become a problem.
The elastic clause is a myth
@9CJ6CB61mo1MO
The elastic clause is agreed upon by interpretation, which by definition cannot be myth because it requires assumptions of the constitution to work that cannot be proven or disproven, so the assumption, if vague or uncertain enough, can lead to a wide range of outcomes. The outcomes of the elastic clause under current interpretation are that the implied powers are both necessary and proper to create the conditions necessary to carry out governmental duties. At this point, it’s a matter of preference and taste.
It can be proven to be false by looking at the understanding of the ratifiers of the Constitution, whose understanding, legally, is correct, as they were the ones who agreed to that contract. Jut like you can interpret the words "it is sunny outside," as "there's thunderstorm outside," so you can, apparently, interpret a document that clearly limits federal power as a sweeping grant of power to the federal government. But clearly that's a false "interpretation."
