“I consider the foundation of the Constitution as laid on this ground that ‘all powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states or to the people.’ To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress, is to take possession of a boundless field of power, not longer susceptible of any definition.” —Thomas Jefferson, 1791

I have a relative who has a master’s degree in history. He says “It doesn’t matter what Jefferson said.”

I responded “You’re living proof a college education does not neccessarily mean intelligence. You have a few degrees. A rectal thermometer has a lot of degrees.”
