Since Joey Minckler wrote to Bill Hayes about Nafta

We can't impeach him over NAFTA, however, his tax law, retroactive
to January 1st, is an 'ex post facto' (retroactive) law. In the US
Constitution, Article 1, Section 9, Part 3, "No bill of attainder
or ex post facto law shall be passed"
malfeasance n. 1. unlawful action by a public official.
While people might argue that the part of Section 9 of Article 1
is "only" in reference to criminal activities, Chief Justices of
the Supreme Court from 1863 to 1968 have used that part of Section
9 of Article 1 in references to laws passed in these 50 States as
being unconstitutional in reference to their 'retroactive' clauses.
If the Supreme Court has not used the reference as "only" criminal
activities, arguing that it is "only" in reference to criminal
activities will only fall flat on its face.

According to Hillary, The Health Care 'added costs' will be paid for
by increasing cigerette luxury taxes. I'm surprized she didn't add
taxes on the illegal sales of recreational drugs.
... Success comes in clumps. Don't try to catch the clump, just use it.
