Federal v. State Power - USA
So let’s get this straight:
— federal government continues to Make-up nonsense laws that give them sovereignty over state laws
— McCulloch v. Maryland (1819)
~ gave the power of Congress to charter a bank
— federal government wanted to control states unregulated currency
— Article I, Section 8, Clause 18 of the U.S. Constitution ~ apparently gives Congress the right to makeup laws against the states
~Check out the specifics behind “Enumerated Powers”~
https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/article-1/section-8/
— The Constitution established in 1788 is the fundamental foundation of the United States of America (July 4, 1776)
— The Bill of Rights are the first 10 Amendments, added in 1791 to specifically protect individual freedoms and prevent government overstep
~the Bill of Rights was supposed to stop the federal government from over powering individual liberties, however the federal government keeps adding new amendments to the Constitution that see to override the Bill of Rights and therefore, the People!~
— Bill of Rights: 10th Amendment - restricts the power of the federal government.
If the constitution does not explicitly grant them power, then it belongs to the states.
Problem is they can simply add a new law that states they “can” do something normally illegal unless that new law is added. 🤦🏻♀️
Solution: TERM LIMITS & WAGE CAPS (without being able to invest in their own system: AKA the stock exchange & insider trading)
— Maryland tried to tax The Second National Bank in 1818 to which James W. McCulloch, a federal cashier at the Baltimore branch of the U.S. bank, refused to pay.
— the Supreme Court ruled in favor of federal. Stating the chartering of banks was an “implied” power (this is illegal- there is no such thing as “implied power” in our bill of rights) of the constitution under the “elastic clause”, or The Necessary and Proper clause, which grants Congress the authority to “makes laws necessary and proper for carrying into execution”
*so federal can just make up a law on the spot that overrides any laws bringing corruption to theirs or the public’s attention 😑*
— March 6, 1819: McCulloch v. Maryland officially established the Supremacy of the Federal Government over State Government
— & this is one of the many reasons we’re in this mess today where the government is forcing the poor public to be reliant on them.
— McCollum v. Board of Education (1948): public schools cannot permit voluntary religious instruction on school grounds
(Removing our nation from spirituality was a mistake)
— first they forcibly took control of states money, then they ended the nuclear family culture by forcing both parents in households to work so no one is home to care for the children (Industrial Revolution where the rich started getting RICHHH) (also taxed households more, stole money from middle class families, established a “work for the man” mentality, & destroyed the future which is CHILDREN), but no worries they created schools to send your kids to, while you work, where they will educate them ONLY on what they deem is worthy and the majority curriculum is NOT worthy seeing as they purposely leave out important history!, now they’ve got everyone dependent on the medical system with terrible American diets (b/c of processed foods that the FDA approved), so now Americans need more doctors to cure their health illness that the government caused and how do you see a doctor? Though insurance, which the government also provides, regulates, & makes confusing and if you can’t afford it, they’ll just give it to you through tax payers money (because federal is allowed to tax state but not the other way around), not to mention half the medication they give out cause MORE complications and often death. Our government does not care about us, stop relying on the system to fix what it purposely broke. They want the poor peasants stuck in the matrix, completely dependent on “the man” to care for us.
We DONT need that. What we need is for them to stop micromanaging our lives and taking ALL OUR MONEY! People could afford healthy food and doctors if the government didn’t steal all our money!! & stop trusting doctors so much, they’re just after the money too.
— McCulloch and others v. Forth Valley Health Board gives doctors permission to NOT tell you ALL the treatment plans they are aware of for whatever illness you posses. They have full legal immunity to ONLY tell you the treatments they deem fit.
Which nowadays is all Big Pharma medication because they get big phat checks from big pharma for being their legal drug dealer & handing out opioids like there isn’t a crisis going on outside?!?
They never mention alternative, natural methods and they don’t even study vaccines in school 😑
So it’s really hard to trust doctors, especially when they look at you sideways when you try to tell them something about YOUR body but they think they know more because they wasted 8-10 years of their life in school learning how to be a legal drug dealer for a broken and corrupt system instead of learning how our biological world and bodies work with a dash of spirituality.

Reflecting on the enduring tension between federal and state authority in the U.S., it's clear how pivotal the McCulloch v. Maryland case has been in shaping American governance. This 1819 Supreme Court ruling marked a defining moment by affirming that Congress possesses implied powers, such as chartering a national bank, under the Necessary and Proper Clause (Article I, Section 8, Clause 18). This principle expanded federal power beyond explicit constitutional text, influencing the balance of power over states. From personal observation and study, it’s evident that this expansion has profound effects on everyday life and political dynamics. The 10th Amendment was designed to reserve all powers not delegated to the federal government to the states or the people, suggesting a limitation on federal authority. However, the concept of "implied powers" and the Supremacy Clause effectively enable the federal government to enact laws that supersede conflicting state laws, fueling debates about federal overreach. The historical context helps reveal why actions like Maryland's attempt to tax a federally chartered bank were struck down; the Court recognized that state interference could undermine federal functions. Yet, this also set a precedent where the federal government can override state legislation, which some see as government overreach, especially when combined with later amendments and laws that extend federal jurisdiction. Private citizens often experience the tangible impact of this balance—whether in education, healthcare, or economic regulations. For example, federal rulings and laws influence public school policies or healthcare systems, sometimes limiting local control and individual freedoms. This dynamic can create frustration, especially when federal policies seem to prioritize regulatory control or economic interests, such as Big Pharma concerns highlighted in healthcare discussions. To truly grasp the federal-state power struggle, it's useful to understand not only constitutional provisions and Supreme Court rulings but also how they translate into policy and affect communities. Many feel that the federal government's ability to "make up laws" under the Necessary and Proper Clause contributes to a lack of accountability and encroachment on personal liberties and state sovereignty. Engaging with this complex issue also encourages citizens to think critically about voting, legislation, and government transparency, as well as advocating for term limits and restrictions on government officials’ financial conflicts to reduce corruption. Understanding the legal framework behind federal and state powers better equips individuals to navigate and influence the political system that governs their lives.
