What does article 1 section 8 of the constitution mean?
Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution enumerates, or specifies, the powers of the legislative branch of our government (the Congress). This is what Congress is able to do, no more, no less. To me, the most interesting of these powers is the ability to create & regulate money (i.e. its value). Sadly, Congress surrendered this power in 1913 when the Federal Reserve Act was passed. Since that time, the value of the dollar has plummeted dramatically.
