What are the different categories of powers granted by the Constitution? The different categories of power granted by the Constitution are the delegated powers, implied powers, and reserved powers. What is the elastic clause? What is its constitutional basis? The elastic clause is also known as the necessary and proper clause because it stretches national government authority. The final clause of Section 8 authorizes Congress to make all laws necessary and proper for carrying out the delegated powers. The constitutional basis of the elastic clause is under the final paragraph of Article I, Section 8. It enables the Congress to pass special laws to demand other sections of the government to pursue legal actions on particular claims. After having …show more content…
Maryland 1819 - Marshall denied a state right to tax a national bank. This was a significant Court declaration of national power. Barron v. Baltimore 1833 - Ruled that state governments could not seize property without compensation. Dred Scott V. Sanford 1857 - ruled that Congress did not have the power to prohibit slavery in the territories. Are the supporters of the states’ rights doctrine in favor of a narrow or broad interpretation of the implied powers doctrine? Why do you need to be a member? The supporters of the states’ rights doctrine are in favor of a narrow interpretation of the implied powers doctrine. This is because a narrow interpretation limits the range of federal power, which keeps more independence for the states individually. Based on what we studied in class, is the U.S. Congress allowed to adopt laws making distinction/classification among people? When does the U.S. Supreme Court use strict judicial scrutiny? The U.S. Congress is allowed to adopt laws making distinction/classification among people. At the same time, the adopted laws have to abide by the rules stated in the Constitution (specifically to the Fourteenth Amendment). The Fourteenth Amendment limits the government from refusing to give equal rights to people. An example of this is the Jim Crow Laws that we discussed in class. These laws enforce segregation and discrimination against African Americans dealing with schools, transportation, bathrooms, etc. The Jim Crow Laws promote
Throughout the course of time the elastic clause and the commerce clause has been utilized in court cases and arguments. With time the clauses have changed the fit into the change of society. As represented by various court cases. A variation of interpretations has been drawn out within the time frame of its establishment. A loose and strict interpretation has been implemented in the constitution depending on point of views. Although, the interpretation of the constitution is strictly restricted
continues to use certain clauses within the document to its advantage, further expanding its role in Americans’ daily lives. One of the significant provisions that Congress uses to gain more power over the years is the Elastic Clause, also referred to as the “necessary and proper” clause. This part of the constitution provides the government with

change it as the country changes; that is the reason it has survived for 225 years and most likely there will be many more years for it. There are four ways the Constitution changes, The Elastic Clause, Amendment Procedure as a Mechanism for Change, The Bill of Rights, and Supreme Court Decision. The Elastic Clause allows congress to make all laws necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers. A court case that would represent this would be Miranda v. Arizona, in 1966, Ernesto

exactly fit the data. A non-probabilistic analogue of the confirmation condition above that I offer avoids the 'old evidence problem, which has been a headache for classical Bayesianism. Idealizations and approximations like point-masses, perfectly elastic springs, parallel conductors crossing at infinity, assumptions of linearity, of "negligible" masses, of perfectly spherical shapes, are commonplace in science. Use of such simplifying assumptions as catalysts in the process of deriving testable predictions
Federalism, by definition, is the division of government authority between at least two levels of government. In the United States, authority is divided between the state and national government. “Advocates of a strong federal system believe that the state and local governments do not have the sophistication to deal with the major problems facing the country” (Encarta.com). Even before the Constitution was ratified, strong argument were
the view of Jefferson and stated that the Constitution’s writers could not have predicted the need of a bank for the United States. Hamilton said that the right to create the Bank of the United States was stated in the “elastic” or the “necessary and proper” clause in which the Constitution gave the government the power to pass laws that were necessary for the welfare of the nation. “ This began the argument between the “strict constructionists” (Jefferson) who believed in the strict
rotation. Here the focus will be on collisions between the balls. The spin can have a significant effect on the motion of the ball, but due to time constraints and complexity of the science of it it will not be addressed to much detail. "An elastic collision between two objects is one in which the total kinetic energy (as well as total momentum) of the system is the same before and after the collision." (Physics for Scientists and Engineers) In a collision between the cue ball and another
as shown above. • Or, if there are clips on your hanger, clip the shirt on the shoulders. To Fold Socks: • Place one sock on top of the other. • Grab three of the top layers of elastic with one thumb, while holding one layer with the other. • Roll your thumbs away from each other until the elastic on the sock is fully turned inside out. To Fold Underwear: • Fold the two sides of the garmet together until they meet. • Fold over once more if necessary. Folding laundry is an
88.7 milliliter dixie cups, 50 milliliters of red colored water and a freezer holding the temperature of a negative twenty degrees Celsius. In addition I used a plastic bowl with the dimension of 18 by18 millimeters. And finally I had a piece of elastic string. The procedure for my experiment was not too difficult it just took quite a bit of time. I started with a paper towel, an 18 by 18-millimeter bowl and a rubber band. I also had twelve 88.7-milliliter dixie cups filled with 50 milliliters
The term globalisation is a particularly elastic concept. Not only does it embrace a wide range of ‘things’, it also straddles the realms of ‘fact’ and ‘value’ of ‘idea’ and ‘reality’, thus to define the word globalisation requires an amalgamation of both moral and material values which may include and encompass events as dynamic as economic, political and social. At its simplest globalisation has tended to denote the idea that societies are becoming increasingly affected by events of other societies
Transport in Mammals A recurring theme in biological systems is the surface area to volume ratio. All cells require nutrients and most require oxygen as well. Wastes also need to be removed. With a small organism this demand can be met by simple diffusion over the body surface but larger or very active organisms need a transport system with a pump to ensure that the supply meets the demand of all cells, even those deep within the body. In mammals, the pump is
cardiologist is often able to treat coronary disease before it causes an MI. – http://myweb.com/contents/dmk_article396168 Coronary Artery Disease Healthy arteries are flexible, strong, and elastic. Their inner layer is smooth and blood flows freely. As you get older, your arteries become thicker, less elastic, and deposits build in them. This leads to a general hardening of the arteries, which is also called atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis or arteriosclerosis is the main cause of coronary artery
Price elasticity of demand is defined as how demand changes as a result of a change in price. It can be said that if a reduction in price leads to an increase in demand then demand is relatively elastic. Elasticity is usually negative. There is an alternative scenario where demand will increase as price does so too. This happens only in the case of Giffen goods, where elasticity is positive. The formula for price elasticity of demand is: Percentage Change in Quantity Demanded Percentage Change
