What prevents the federal government from using the supremacy clause to take all powers away from the states?
Congress is only able to take action using the Supremacy Clause if its actions are within an area in which Congress holds authority. If it doesn't have the authority, the Supremacy Clause is invalid. Intent also needs to be established. In other words, the law must have been created for the purpose of superseding the policy of the state.

this question is an opinion question. the fact that the federal government can ever feel undermined my a state's decision means that the federal government is indeed not supreme and the supremacy clause should be defined unsupported. But alas that is not the case so my answer is that since the supremacy lies within the federal govt any decision that states make that opposes the federal govt does not undermine the federal, however, allows the states to use their reserved powers that given to them in the constitution in the tenth amendment.

The part of the Constitution that says federal laws outrank state and local laws is called?
The part of the Constitution that says federal laws outrank state and local laws is called the "Supremacy Clause". You can find this answer if you go to ask.com and then type in Supremacy Clause. It will then take you to the definition of this clause. The site is http://www.lectlaw.com/def2/s105.htm Here is part of it, basically all that you need to answer this question:SUPREMACY CLAUSE - "This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the contrary notwithstanding." U.S. Const. art. VI, Paragraph 2Under the Supremacy Clause, everyone must follow federal law in the face of conflicting state law. It has long been established that "a state statute is void to the extent that it actually conflicts with a valid federal statute" and that a conflict will be found either where compliance with both federal and state law is impossible or where the state law stands as an obstacle to the accomplishment and execution of the full purposes and objectives of Congress. Edgar v. Mite Corp., 457 U.S. 624, 631 (1982). Similarly, we have held that "otherwise valid state laws or court orders cannot stand in the way of a federal court's remedial scheme if the action is essential to enforce the scheme." Stone v. City and County of San Francisco, 968 F.2d 850, 862 (9th Cir. 1992), cert. denied, 113 S. Ct. 1050 (1993). I hope that this helps all of you :) *~Stephanie Kay~*
What is the principle of supremacy is it constitutional?
The supremacy clause is written out in the US Constitution under article 6; it states that the US Constitution, the laws made in pursuance thereof, and the treaties made by the authority of the United States is the supreme law of the land and goes further by defining every single government official (both state and federal) is required to take an oath in support of the US Constitution.Since it is so clearly spelled out, and contained in the original sections of the constitution; then yes it is constitutional beyond question. It should also be noted that those people who wrote the constitution emphatically stated that it was intended to be supreme.
