Brilliant defense. Just tell me I'm stupid because I can understand plain English better than you.
But you don't have to take my word for it:
There isn't really any other conclusion that can be made. If government can tax for anything in the general wellfare and there are no other qualifiers to general wellfare other than what is stated in that clause then it can also define as it wishes what general wellfare means. If you can't see the problem with that there really is no helping you.
Spiderman.....to sum it up....he is saying that the federal government can not just take power it was not given under the constitution through legislation.
