It would reduce the whole instrument to a single phrase,
that of instituting a Congress with power to do whatever
would be for the good of the United States;
and as they would be the sole judges of the good or evil,
it would be also a power to do whatever evil they please.
Certainly no such universal power was meant to be given them. [
The Constitution] was intended to lace them up straightly
within the enumerated powers and those without which,
as means, these powers could not be carried into effect.
