I didn't mean to create a strawman. I guess I assumed you favored the bailout. Opps.


All rights not otherwise listed as powers of the fed are reserved by the states or the people. That was my paraphrase but you could easily look up "the Enumerated rights clause."


So the real question becomes which article of the constitution gives the congress the right to take the money that belongs to all of the people and give it to just a few businesses?


That is directly in opposition to the general welfare clause which states that what the government does must be for the GENERAL welfare and not just for the welfare of a few people. You can always tell when they are violating the general welfare clause because the take money and give it to just a few people instead of using it for he benefit of the population in general.


The early courts consistently understood this and struck down any attempt to violate these principles. After FDR stacked the court and "blackmailed" them in the "constitutional revolution of 1937" the courts were forced to rule the other way and now precedent is set for huge money grab and socialist takeover.
