Answer 4

Article 1 section 8 clause 17 Would seem to me to give congress rather broad and sweeping power to act on anything that is mentioned in the constitution. And congress seems to have thought so to.

Answer 5

To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.

Answer 6

It shall be considered a felony for a politician to tell the truth.

Answer 7

Article 1, Section 8, clause 17 gives the very specific methods by which the federal government may acquire land within a state (it must be purchased with consent of the legislature) as well as describe the ONLY land uses allowed by the federal government....that of building forts, arsenals, dock-yards and building useful for the running of government. This would mean that the Department of Interior controlling "public" lands for the purposes of grazing, recreation, mining, oil, gas and timber sales is in violation of the constitution
