you guys are crazy. this whole citizenship thing is an enumerated power. shocking.
Generally speaking, the majority of posters here at USMB struggle with the concept of *enumerated powers"~~and which powers belong to whom.
Another good example would be the healthcare debate and the associated fine for failing to obtain healthcare coverage.
Levying this fine to individual citizens of the United States is not an enumerated power reserved to the Federal Government, therefore it belongs with the state. This has proven to be a *hugely* difficult concept for our members accept.
that precipitates a commerce clause showdown, actually. hugely difficult.
Not from what I've heard.
