Congress does not need "authority" to pass laws!!

ROFL!!!!

That is (as a matter of theory) the stupidest thing I have seen on this forum ever. Congratulations!

That is (as a matter of practice) the most damning thing I have ever seen on this forum regarding the actual behavior of Congress. You admit .. you CELEBRATE … that in practice, the government acts as tyrant with unlimited power.

You're admitting that the US Government has a habit of acting in gross violation of its actual authority. Do you realize that? I think you do … and I think you think it's a "good thing". Some folks just love them some government coercion. It's for the children.

It's also beneath contempt.

You are absolutely ridiculous and being abjectly obdurate. I will try to penetrate that thick skull of yours. In the example you gave, universal health care, in order to make it unconstitutional for congress to pass a law like that the USC would have to be amended and it would have to say, "Congress shall pass no law providing universal health care to all citizens".

Then you would be correct in saying it is unconstitutional. The only thing stopping congress now is politics. But that is true for every law they pass. After a law is passed then a plaintiff with standing can bring a case to the unconstitutionality of the law, but only then.

Get it?
