Question

the Framers of the Constitution gave specific powers to both the nation as well as individual states. Explain why printing currency is a delegated power. What problems would arise if each state was able to print their own money?

Answer 1

Answer:

It is likely that each state would have to trade independently. This would be particularly difficult as the federal government oversees international trade.
