Question

(02.05 lc)
which of the following would be an implied power in the constitution?
○ creating the armed forces
○ regulating the internet
○ printing new currency
○ affirming new judges

Explanation:

Implied powers are not explicitly stated in the Constitution but are derived from the necessary and proper clause. The Constitution gives Congress the power to regulate commerce (which could be extended to regulating aspects of the Internet in the modern context). Creating the Armed Forces (Article I, Section 8), printing new currency (Article I, Section 8), and affirming new judges (Article II, Section 2) are more explicitly covered in the Constitution compared to regulating the Internet which is a modern - day application that would be an implied power.

Answer:

Regulating the Internet
