Are you aware that not all rights granted to the government are in the constitution?
I can tell you are going to want to dispute that, but doing so would only be a display of ignorance.
Plenty of rights the government has are are a result of later caselaw or legislation, and not outlined in the constitution. If you want to say those don't count, then you're probably a 'sovereign citizen' type.
- tastyfreeze 3y agoIncorrect. All powers that the Federal government has are explicitly granted in the Constitution. All powers not explicitly granted to the Federal government belong to the States or the people. Way to attempt to be dismissive of a literal reading of the Constitution that ostensibly governs this country. If a sovereign citizen is somebody that believes in self-governance of the people then, thank you. This country was created and defended by people that believe this. I am proud to be part of that tradition. 10th Amendment The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. So, 10th Amendment says that later caselaw and legislation that gives more power to Federal government than was defined in the Constitution is illegal. The only way the Federal government can legally get more power is through Constitutional amendments.
- PrimeMcFly 3y ago> Incorrect. lol, called it. > All powers that the Federal government has are explicitly granted in the Constitution. This is just incorrect. As I said, caselaw and legislation grant rights not explicitly in the constitution. That's just a fact, and I'm not really interested in debating it or any various fringe theories of how some people think things ought to work, anymore than I have an interest in debating Pangaea existed or that the sky during daylight generally appears blue to humans. Take care.
