Discussion on the current debt crisis

#26

Quote:It's not a "Old Republican Chestnut". Whatever that is.

 

It's the 10th Amendment. If it isn't specifically defined in the Constitution, it's for up to the States. 
 

The tenth amendment is a paper tiger. The constitution allows for almost unlimited expansion of federal power and even specifically mentions the general welfare as one of the responsibilities of congress.

 

The only thing the tenth amendment basically says is that anything the federal government has yet to decide to oversee is up for the states to govern, not that there is some limit on what the federal government can do as nut-jobs think.

ABOUT US
The Jungle Forums is the Jaguars' biggest fan message board. Talking about the Jags since 2006, the Jungle was the team-endorsed home of all things Jaguars.

Since 2017, the Jungle is now independent of the team but still run by the same crew. We are here to support and discuss all things Jaguars and all things Duval!
