The power to tax and spend

[Keith Broaders]

Congress has the authority to lay and collect taxes to provide for our common defense and promote the general welfare of the nation as a whole,

power delegated to tax and spend is limiteda  power to tax and spend.

Spending money for any other purpose is unconstitution.

Congress can only spend money on things that are ncecessary and proper and most of the trillions of dollars the government spends is neither necessary or proper.

Borrowing trillions of dollars to pay for unconstititional programs and project benefits the lenders and turns us into perpetual debt slaves.

Borrowing money is unnecessary as Congress has the authority to issue all of money we need.

The taxes needed to pay the interest on the debt could be eliminated if we stopped spending money on things we don't need and can't afford.
