This is from your beloved government's own mouth.

 

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:12.8000001907349px;color:rgb(70,62,62);"><b>Q. The United States government is frequently described as one of limited powers. Is this true?</b>

A. Yes. The United States government possesses only such powers as are specifically granted to it by the Constitution.

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:12.8000001907349px;color:rgb(70,62,62);"><b>Q. Then how does it happen that the government constantly exercises powers not mentioned by the Constitution?</b>

A. Those powers simply flow from general provisions. To take a simple example, the Constitution gives to the United States the right to coin money. It would certainly follow, therefore, that the government had the right to make the design for the coinage. This is what the Supreme Court calls "reasonable construction" of the Constitution (Art. I, sec. 8, cl. 18).

A. There is none; education is a matter reserved for the States.

Really, just stop, you clearly have no knowledge of the constitution or of case law.

 

As I already stated, the constitution grants practically limitless power to the federal government via the legislative process. There is no constitutional constraint of the federal government's power except the procedural and structural stipulations it places on the form of the legislature.
