Indeed it would be unlimited.
It was a good thing that the actual powers to effectuate that mandate were specifically enumerated following the statement. If it were a broad mandate, it would have been unnecessary to enumerate the specific powers that congress had.

Balderdash. There is no grammatical indication that each paragraph in that section isn't independent, and some of the inumerated items bear no obvious relation to the leading paragraph. furthermore, the final sentence reads:
To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof
I'd call this a serious case of libertarian wishful-thinkingism.
Merry Christmas
