I have a feeling that history is repeating itself and we will again be able to use a quote from a movie:

Where are the strict constitutionalist judges and Supreme Court justices?
Article 1, section 8 of the United States Constitution starts with the words “The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises”
