COTD: How Quaint

“1. If it is a tax, why did it originate in the Senate?”

Doesn’t matter. Just because some irrelevant piece of paper states one thing, what really matters is what DC wants right now. Roberts signed on to that.

“2. What part of the constitution is construed to allow congress the authority to tax anything it wants even without having the authority to regulate it?”

The power of “We can do anything we like and you serfs just have to eat this cr@p sandwich and like it” That power. Right next to the power of “we can take your property and give it to whoever we d@mn well please”.

You seem to think that a piece of paper more than 200 years old is anything more than toilet paper to people in DC and their supporters in the provinces. How quaint."
This one is after my own heart...
