You know, if you can read, you are doing better than many members of Congress.
Thankfully, some members of the Supreme Court can read.
I am right sure that those who follow me on my website and Facebook can read.
What the Heck Am I Talking About?
There is a lot of hub-bub and opinion on the Supreme Court ruling on student loans.
You see, it’s like this. Justices don’t make laws, that’s the job of Congress. The job of a Justice is to judge if a law is constitutional.
Oh, yes, Presidents can’t make laws, either. Presidential edicts are not laws.
By the way, our Constitution is not that difficult to read.
Constitution of the United States of America, Article I, Section 1
All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.
Constitution of the United States of America, Article I, Section 7
All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills.
Constitution of the United States of America, Article I, Section 9
No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of the Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time.
Is That Really So Difficult To Understand?
I’m just an ignorant Hillbilly, but if I study real hard, I’m pretty sure I can understand those words:
– Only Congress can make laws.
– A spend money law must originate in the House.
– Money can’t be spent unless there is a law.
I mean, just how difficult is that to understand?
On top of everything else, the student loan business isn’t a law.
Maybe before your next vote, you should check that the House Member or Senator you are voting for can read.
